Teh Su Ching’s work in theatre and film has been performed and screened in New York, Moscow, London, Glasgow, Shanghai, Tokyo, and Singapore. She graduated from NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts Asia (Singapore) with an MFA in Dramatic Writing, and from Yale University with a BA in Literature and Theatre Studies. She is the only Singaporean student in history to have been featured in the Yale Playwrights Festival. Ubin was her MFA thesis play, which she also work-shopped with MacArthur Genius Grant recipient David Henry Hwang in a Singapore Repertory Theatre Masterclass. Since grad school, Su Ching has co-written three telemovies with Singapore filmmaker Wee Li Lin, performed with Shanghai’s oldest improv comedy troupe, Zmack, in English and Mandarin, and played wise-cracking forensics expert Jean Wu on Mediacorp Channel 5’s Code of Law. Su Ching now lives in Bangkok with her husband and son, where she writes for Mediacorp TV series Lion Moms. She is also a published fiction-writer, essayist, and poet.
