The play THE LAST GIFT two nights ago opened at the Academy of Performing Arts, in attendance were Carina Lau Ka Ling, Charmaine Sheh Sze Man, Teresa Mo Shun Kwan, Elaine Jin, Albert Yeung Sau Sing and his wife, William So Wing Hong and his wife, and Michelle Wai Sze Nga and others. Having performed on the stage, Lau Ka Ling admitted that she really enjoyed the rehearsal process and missed the feeling of working on a show. If she would run into a suitable script she would consider performing again. She also revealed that her husband Tony Leung Chiu Wai was interested in working on a play as well. Despite the endless offers though, Wai Jai has been hesitant and indecisive with concerns galore.

The play THE LAST GIFT due to the pandemic was postponed for half a year. Executive producer Yeung Sau Sing after the end thanked the staff and the audience. "Performing the play 6 months later, you performed very well. Thank you everyone. I also want to thank tonight's audience and the audience of the future 39 shows. After I heard the decision to suspend the performance I issued a notice for the audience to get a refund, but the amount of people was almost zero."

Lau Ka Ling who has not appeared in Hong Kong for awhile two nights ago went to the play. She also had past stage experience and admitted that she had an acting bug. She too felt that a much better actor than her, husband Leung Chiu Wai, should go on the stage once.

Ka Ling returned from Shanghai for about two months. In the past year and a half she stayed in the Mainland for work. How long she would stay this time would depend on the environment, but she would rest a little first and handle Hong Kong business. She would also promote her new film WARRIORS OF FUTURE (MING YUT JIN GEI), then she would meet up with husband Leung Chiu Wai in Japan.

Having been in plays, Ka Ling admitted that she still had an acting bug. In particular coming to the Academy of Performing Arts again felt very special. "I have performed a play here, I am very familiar with the environment . It was a lot of fun and I miss the feeling of performing a play very much. I really enjoy the rehearsal process, so with a good script I would keep performing. Earlier I have been in various negotiations, only the scripts weren't attractive enough." Ka Ling revealed that Wai Jai would be interested in performing in a play as well and has always had offers. "Mr. Leung probably should be on the stage once. I have been helping him with the scripts. Each time after watching my performance he would be tempted, but still hesitant and indecisive without concerns galore. Actually he acts better than I do, what does he have to be worried about?"

However Ka Ling pointed out that Wai Jai's schedule has been filled until two years from now. As his manger she actually has only been expressing his desires. Ka Ling revealed that Wai Jai would soon head to Canada for a Netflix series, Wai Jai probably should have left for Canada already. Only due to the pandemic he has postponed until now. Ka Ling said that when the shoot would officially begin, she would accompany him. "I would go and take a look, once he's settled I would leave. I don't like to disturb him, so he could focus on his performance."
