★★★★★ Review: Four Horse Road 四马路 (2023) by The Theatre Practice

Short, sharp vignettes from Waterloo Street’s history leave a lasting impact and a desire to go back. Restagings of theatre productions in Singapore are hard to come by, even more so for complicated works that require extensive logistics and planning. So when The Theatre Practice’s (Practice) previous staging of Four Horse Road was cut short due to the circuit breaker in 2020, it seemed like … Continue reading ★★★★★ Review: Four Horse Road 四马路 (2023) by The Theatre Practice

★★★★☆ Review: The Soldier and His Virtuous Wife by The Theatre Practice

Traditional Yuan Opera becomes a high energy pop musical for modern audiences. Every couple probably has a funny story to share with friends, whether it’s how they met, or humorous anecdotes from their time together. But how often does a man end up flirting with his wife because he doesn’t recognise her? That’s one story that The Theatre Practice (Practice) have decided to bring to … Continue reading ★★★★☆ Review: The Soldier and His Virtuous Wife by The Theatre Practice

Preview: Four Horse Road 四马路 2020 by The Theatre Practice

When The Theatre Practice produced Four Horse Road back in 2018, the project was a sprawling, massive undertaking. Taking its cues from immersive theatre and heavily vested in a firm foundation of research of the actual Waterloo Street to do justice to its history, the promenade theatre production was unlike anything the local theatre scene had ever seen before. Now, they’re bringing the remarkable production back for … Continue reading Preview: Four Horse Road 四马路 2020 by The Theatre Practice

M1 Patch! 2019: PROJECT Utopia《望眼吾托邦》 by The Theatre Practice (Review)

The Practice Space becomes a lab to experiment and play with the concept of ‘Utopia’. English writer Thomas Moore was the first person to write about utopias, or an imaginary perfect world. Can such a place exist in real life, or is it doomed to forever be a land of fiction? With The Theatre Practice’s PROJECT Utopia, five international artists then come together to distil that question … Continue reading M1 Patch! 2019: PROJECT Utopia《望眼吾托邦》 by The Theatre Practice (Review)

Cycles of abuse can be a real bitch to break out of in this harrowing, pitch black play. It’s not often that you leave a play feeling utterly corrupted by how dark it is, and if any company has done it, it’s Taiwan’s M.O.V.E. Theatre. Directed by Fu Hong-Zheng and written by Lin Meng-Huan, A Dog’s House is pitch black in tone, as we enter the home of … Continue reading M1 Patch! 2019: A Dog’s House《野良犬之家》by M.O.V.E.
