SINGAPORE: In an Instagram post, ex-Mediacorp artist and theatre actress Sharon Au shared her mother would rather stay home, play mahjong, and watch Netflix rather than watch her daughter’s live theatre show. 

Sharon stated in her post caption: “I got her tickets to watch Pompeii, the live cinema theatre piece I am performing in, she said ‘No thank you I will fall asleep all the best good luck’. She would rather stay home to Netflix Korean drama or play mahjong.”

Sharon also expressed how her mother has supported her in everything she does.

“She supports everything I do. She sends me to rehearsals. She brings cut fruits to me at the Drama Centre because she knows I am watching my weight and too nervous to eat when I am performing,” she said.

However, when it comes to theatre shows, her mother had to draw the line.
