A family sits down to dinner at a seafood restaurant. The simple everyday ritual of eating together becomes almost a riot of significant proportions when "Drunken Prawns" is ordered as a special treat. Drunken Prawns is the top prize winner in the first Hewlett Packard/ACTION Theatre 10-Minute Play Contest. The play received its premiere in December 1993 as part of Singapore Squeeze.

The world premiere production was directed by Ekachai Uekrongtham and starred (the late) Raymond Ong, Irene Lim, Cindy Sim, Wendi Tan and Tony Choo.

ACTION Theatre would like to dedicate this production of Drunken Prawns to our fondest memories of Raymond ~ our favourite theatre Dad.
