"We are human! We are human!" Kapani, 37, cries, her features contorted.


Leaning towards the audience, she yells: "Don’t treat us like things!"


Kapani, a Filipina, is one of nine actors from four Asian countries to perform in the play "Mobile," which made its debut recently with a two-day run at the Singapore Arts Festival that ends Sunday.
