Russell Heng has lived many lives in Singapore but is probably most well known as one of the key members of People Like Us, and the playwright of the ground-breaking work "Lest The Demons Get To Me" a play which explored the clash of cultures in a modernizing and cosmopolitan city. In this episode we hear from Russell about his life as a Teochew boy growing up in the 60s and 70s, his experiences at school, and the realization that he was not like anyone else.
