★★★★☆ Review: Hossan-ah! In The High Arts by Hossan Leong

Hossan Leong takes us on a musical and theatrical journey through his life and times in the Singapore arts scene. Who says the Singapore International Festival of Arts (SIFA) always needs to show off ‘atas’, head-scratching art forms? In a rather unexpected turn of programming, this year’s festival presents local entertainer Hossan Leong in his SIFA debut with Hossan-ah! In The High Arts, as he … Continue reading ★★★★☆ Review: Hossan-ah! In The High Arts by Hossan Leong

★★★★★ Review: Waiting For Audience by Nine Years Theatre

Metatheatrical musing on artmaking is a hit, thanks to emotive, powerful performances and staging by Nelson Chia and Mia Chee. There’s good reason why so many parents in Singapore dissuade their children from pursuing a career in the arts; as much as it’s an industry that brings entertainment, joy and provokes thoughts in the countless audiences who witness it, it’s also a notoriously unstable scene, … Continue reading ★★★★★ Review: Waiting For Audience by Nine Years Theatre

★★★★☆ Review: stray gods by weish

Mesmerising live concept album that draws on ancient texts and a touch of the supernatural, elevating weish’s artistry to new heights. Considering how we’ve always established Singapore’s identity as a multicultural city and ‘rojak’-like mix of ethnicities, it comes as no surprise that when we ask ourselves what Singaporean music is, we inevitably realise that no single local artist really encapsulates that idea perfectly well. … Continue reading ★★★★☆ Review: stray gods by weish

★★★★☆ Review: LEAR by Raw Material

Modern, physical theatre reimagining of Shakespeare’s tragedy is poetic and affecting, with a new focus on ageing and caregiving. While Shakespeare’s King Lear is ostensibly a play about the dangers of pride, Raw Material’s new adaptation of the classic instead shifts the focus to his madness, and the difficulty of caregiving for one whose mind has gone besotted. In this version, adapted by Singaporean theatremaker … Continue reading ★★★★☆ Review: LEAR by Raw Material

★★★☆☆ Review: Vampyr by Manuela Infante

Death is a full-time job for the walking dead roaming Chile’s wind farms, exposed as the site of tragedy and exploitation. While the world wakes up to the very real issues of climate change and makes efforts to combat it, selfish corporations continue to put themselves first and find ways to profit under the guise of saving the planet. That is the controversy at the … Continue reading ★★★☆☆ Review: Vampyr by Manuela Infante
