Utilizing food, simple objects, and conversational Cantonese, a dinner table transforms into a liminal space that explores the challenges and triumphs of seeking love and connection at a distance. Long Distance Relationships for Mythical Times is part of 2b theatre\u2019s Great Little Works series: intimate performances based on humanity\u2019s greatest works of theatre and literature, each brought to life by one performer at a table. These shows are uniquely designed for this moment; shows built for small audiences, safely performable during a pandemic, producing minimal ecological impact, and maximal emotional and spiritual value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-dots\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2014 BIOGRAPHY<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile is-vertically-aligned-top\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"420\" height=\"420\" src=\"https:\/\/ent-nts.ca\/app\/uploads\/2026\/03\/gloria-mok-7413-420x420-1551284243.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-25673 size-full\"\/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p><strong>GLoria Mok (Production design and technical arts, 2019)<\/strong> Gloria Mok is a Mississauga-born playwright, video designer, production manager, and arts educator.
