...wrong night - winds up having little to do with the rest of the play. In each the three variations, Reza skips the key scene in which the couples discover the mistake; she jumps straight to later in the evening, when they're scarfing down cheese snacks. (What, no takeout restaurants in Paris?) You only have to imagine what a playwright like Alan Ayckbourn - or even Neil Simon, in his better days - could have done with the same device, to get impatient with "Life X 3" long before the guests file out for the last time...
...crowd is Guan Hoe Soo at 214 Joo Chiat Road, tel: (65) 6344 2761, one of Singapore's signature Peranakan restaurants fusing Malaysian, Indonesian and Chinese cuisine. It's been serving fish-head curry and sotong, or squid, sambal since 1953. Even Lee Kuan Yew is rumored to order takeout from here.

...usual dinner of rice and curry is our nod to the festivities. Little changed for me after I came to Harvard. When other students were home savoring traditional Thanksgiving dinner spreads my first year, I spent the holiday with my sister and brother-in-law disappointed by the Indian takeout food we ate instead of turkey and fixings. After that, I stayed at school or tagged along to a friend’s house, soaking in the American tradition of watching football and stuffing oneself silly...
