The play DESIGN FOR LIVING's Asian tour first stop, Hong Kong, took place two nights ago. Lead actress Sylvia Chang (Cheung Ngai Ga)'s friends Brigitte Lin (Lam Ching Ha) along with Mr. and Mrs. Ti Lung came in support. Other guests included Richie Jen (Yam Yin Chai), Connie Chan Bo Chu, Johnnie To Kei Fung, John Shum Kin Fun, Yip Ngai Woon, Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Tsang Kong.

To Kei Fung came with his colleagues but he arrived late after the show started for interviews. When asked if he was interested in stage work, To Sir stressed that he could only do behind the scene work. "This (on screen) isn't my work. (You used to work on series?) That didn't mean that I like acting!" When asked whether he will attend the Venice Film Festival, To Sir admitted that nothing has been confirmed. Currently he was busy with his film work as a producer. As for his soon to start production Lunar New Year comedy, To Sir admitted that it will be a light story. As for characters and cast he still had to ask the boss. Would he consider Sammi Cheng Sau Man? He said, "I absolutely would consider her. After she believed in Christ she left everything up to the Lord. As long as she is happy then it's fine!"
