SFF 2016: Hawker Spotlight 2016 @ Lagoon Food Village

Over here at BCM Boy, we’re pretty familiar with East Coast Park, since we live so close and venture there for a run or just a day at the beach every once in a while. That’s why we were so excited when we found out about City Gas’ initiative to highlight some of their favourite stalls from Lagoon, and headed down on Sunday afternoon. Hosted … Continue reading SFF 2016: Hawker Spotlight 2016 @ Lagoon Food Village

Review: GRC by Teater Ekamatra

After Cooling Off Day in 2010 it only seemed natural that Alfian Sa’at follow up with another political play the next election year, this time in the form of GRC, first performed in December last year. GRC takes place in a Singapore turned upside down, where Malays are now the majority, and Chinese are a minority race, discriminated against for being suspected of their Chinese communist ties, and stereotyped … Continue reading Review: GRC by Teater Ekamatra

Review: Let’s Get Back Together by Red Pill Productions (10/7/16)

Red Pill Productions’ Let’s Get Back Together (or rather unsubtly, LGBT) was first staged in 2014, and W!ld Rice has revived it for the 2016 Singapore Theatre Festival with an all new cast, consisting Ezzat Alkaff, Ann Lek, Ruzaini Mazani, Eleanor Tan, Jo Tan and Zachary Ibrahim. LGBT is a play much in the same vein as Alfian Sa’at’s Cooling Off Day, in that it uses interviews … Continue reading Review: Let’s Get Back Together by Red Pill Productions (10/7/16)

REVIEW: Ibsen:Ghosts

Last night, the German duo Markus&Markus left an indelible Margot-shaped impression in local discourse on the right-to-die with their riveting documentary theatre Ibsen: Ghosts. This certainly isn’t the first time Singaporean audiences have been confronted with moral questions about dying (think: the use of medical marijuana in Haresh Sharma’s Good People (2007)), and this moving piece with its dearly departed protagonist Margot suggests that one … Continue reading REVIEW: Ibsen:Ghosts

PREVIEW: Innamorati Two

After a sell out run of Innamorati One in 2014, Toy Factory is back to ignite the Drama Centre stage this September with its sequel Innamorati Two (唯二): A Spirited Mandarin Musical. Innamorati Two is not a direct sequel to Innamorati One, rather, a spiritual successor, both penned by Jiang Daini. Innamorati Two follows an ensemble cast of 7 people searching for an answer to their physical and emotional losses in life, and … Continue reading PREVIEW: Innamorati Two

Review: Riders Know When It’s Gonna Rain/Hawa [3/7/16]

W!ld Rice has really brought in a gem with this double bill. Both Riders and Hawa are unique in that they showcase voices rarely heard in the theatre scene – Riders for its honest portrayal of the mat moto subculture in Singapore, and Hawa for a glimpse into Islamic funeral rites from a recent convert to Islam grappling with personal issues of her own. These are issues and scenes that are in short supply … Continue reading Review: Riders Know When It’s Gonna Rain/Hawa [3/7/16]
