THE OPINION - THE IMPORTANCE OF FINDING HOPE IN SOLIDARITY (Link In Profile) @nacsingapore @pangdemoniumtheatre @singaporerepertorytheatre @wildricesg @patchandpunnet @andsoforthsg @esplanadesingapore @checkpointtheatre @nineyearstheatre @cathaypacific @artbasel @thesharulchanna @harvard
[THEATRE] [FIKA & FISHY] Our REVIEW of ‘Fika & Fishy’ by @patchandpunnet is now out on Bakchormeeboy.com. “Patch and Punnet knows their target audience well and enlists the use of pop culture references to enhance scenes, such as using the familiar melody of Randy Newman’s ‘You’ve Got A Friend In Me’ (from Toy Story) to emphasise Fika and Fishy’s growing friendship, and the almost cartoon-like way the passage of time is announced.” Fika & Fishy plays from 14th February to 1st March 2020 at 11 Chander Road. @patchandpunnet
[THE BANTER] [AN INTERVIEW WITH ADRIAN, TRACIE AND ZACHARY PANG] [THE SON] Now out on Bakchormeeboy.com. “Adds Tracie: “I hope watching this play helps people better able to look out for the signs of mental illness, be it in their own family or even in the workplace. Maybe there are some people who don’t have the tools to speak up and say they’re not feeling ok. And for the older generation, to understand that the environment has shifted, that they must now have the awareness of mental illness in the world and to keep an open mind about it. Hopefully, it goes beyond the play, where they make an active attempt to find out more after learning about it, and to better, actively intervene before it’s too late.” The Son plays from 20th February to 7th March 2020 at the Drama Centre Theatre. Tickets available from @sisticsingapore @pangdemoniumtheatre @traciepang
[THEATRE] [★★★★☆ THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST] Our REVIEW of ‘The Importance Of Being Earnest’ by @wildricesg is now out on Bakchormeeboy.com. “The Importance of Being Earnest is a wild ride from start to end, endlessly quotable, wonderfully cheeky, and swathed in a riotous layer of entertainment and pure joy. But beyond that, in our laughter at these pompous, self-important caricatures of characters, we too recognise the same airs we put on in front of others in an effort to impress them and fit in. Much like the Victorian wonderland portrayed in the play, we see how our modern life still thrives on idiosyncrasies such as ridiculous new trends and of course, the false identities we construct for ourselves, whether online or in real life. As the play draws to a close, there is almost a sense of relief when the truth behind Ernest is finally revealed, and the characters can finally begin to live ‘honestly’ without the need to hide. We see then that the happy ending is achievable only when we too finally understand the importance of being earnest, and live a life as true to ourselves as possible.” Photo Credit: W!ld Rice
The Importance of Being Earnest plays from 7th February to 8th March 2020 at the Ngee Ann Kongsi Theatre @ W!ld Rice. Tickets available from @sisticsingapore @wildricesg @ivanhengwild @hossanleong @brendon_fernandez @gavyap77 @chuaenlai @limkaysiu @danielyorkloh
[HUAYI 2020] [★★★★☆ THE LONG GOODBYE 小儿子] Our REVIEW of ‘The Long Goodbye 小儿子’ by Story Works X Dreamland is now out on Bakchormeeboy.com. “Dementia is clearly shown to be a struggle, its difficulties laid bare for all to see, and the very real threat of tearing everything apart the moment it rears its ugly head into our lives. But as The Long Goodbye shows, what matters most for those going through the struggle is the importance of family. With a little love and perseverance, one can see hope at the end of a long dark tunnel, and the journey together becomes a little easier to bear, one day at a time.” The Long Goodbye played from 7th to 9th February 2020 at the Esplanade Theatre as part of Huayi Festival 2020.
The 2020 Huayi – Chinese Festival of the Arts ran from 31st January to 9th February 2020. @esplanadesingapore @story_works @dennytcwu
[HUAYI 2020] [★★★★☆ ALMOST 55 乔杨] Our REVIEW of ‘Almost 55 乔杨’ by @citycontemporary is now out on Bakchormeeboy.com. “Towards the end of the performance, Qiao Yang seats herself in a chair, and we listen to her recall some of her most significant years and her achievements then. But she suddenly mentions her accomplishments at age 60, and we realise that this is a woman that has gone beyond what age can throw at her, unwilling to be restrained by these supposed restrictions on her body. She gets up to dance, and as she does, we see a shadow cast on the ground by the rotating rod, resembling the hand of a clock rapidly spinning. A strobe light is cast on her, and her movements appear hyper-realistic and slowed down, as if time itself were grinding to a halt while she dances on. So long as she can keep dancing, time itself seems to have no effect on her, remaining strong, beautiful and confident till the end of time if she can help it.” Almost 55 played from 7th to 9th February 2020 at the Esplanade Theatre Studio as part of Huayi Festival 2020.
The 2020 Huayi – Chinese Festival of the Arts played from 31st January to 9th February 2020. @esplanadesingapore @citycontemporary
