As much as mental health has entered common conversation these days, it remains one of the most misunderstood conditions in the workplace, seen as some kind of weakness, a burden to employers or worse, a fake excuse to get out of work. But what about in the theatre industry, where actors are constantly … Continue reading Review: Acting Mad by The Necessary Stage

Review: Fantastic Mr Fox 《了不起的狐狸爸爸》by The Little Company

But what The Little Company’s Fantastic Mr Fox does that takes it one step further is combine high production value and strong … Continue reading Review: Fantastic Mr Fox 《了不起的狐狸爸爸》by The Little Company

A 10-lesson course by one of Asia’s top 10 female comedians pays off for these new comedy hopefuls. Is it possible to even teach an art form as intuitive as stand-up comedy?

Review: We Were So Hopeful Then by The Necessary Stage

An attempt to highlight the invisible people key to a production’s success. In any theatre production, those deemed worthy of praise are often limited to cast and creatives. But even beyond them, there still exist people who are present in every production, yet never receive praise or acknowledgement they deserve. To highlight these invisible people then acts as one of the key goals of Ellison Tan’s We … Continue reading Review: We Were So Hopeful Then by The Necessary Stage

N.O.W. 2019: Nimita’s Place – Staged Reading (Review)

The tragedy of Partition leaves a haunting impression in this page to stage adaptation. When Akshita Nanda debuted her first novel last year, little did we expect to see it receive a stage adaptation just a year later. Directed by Edith Podesta, the staged reading may not be a full production, but still manages to mostly capture the essence of the original novel, trimming out material … Continue reading N.O.W. 2019: Nimita’s Place – Staged Reading (Review)

PENANG, MALAYSIA – According to Malaysian comedian Kavin Jay, Penang is his second favourite place to perform in Malaysia, after KL. “I love performing here in particular because of the Penangnite sense of humour,” he says. “They’re always so appreciative of everything that comes their way, compared to people in KL who can be a bit spoilt. And we connect on that level.” It’s perfect then, … Continue reading George Town Festival 2019: An Interview with Kavin Jay and Friends
