M1 Singapore Fringe Festival 2018: Does This Work For You? by The Nervous System (Review)

The Nervous System gives theatrical form to the voice of the oppressed in this promising project about workplace discrimination. There’s a reason they call it ‘the daily grind’ – work can be a drag, and even more so if you’re at the bottom, pushed around by superiors and the system. It’s no wonder then that there’s plenty of room for complaints to be made, and … Continue reading M1 Singapore Fringe Festival 2018: Does This Work For You? by The Nervous System (Review)

Ground Cover Theatre tackles the refugee crisis in an intimate, polished piece brimming with theatrical magic. In Displaced, Ground Cover Theatre boldly tackles the topic of the refugee crisis in a play that tells of three women from different time periods who all escape to Canada. Mary (Jacqueline Block) flees from Ireland’s Great Famine in 1847, Sofia (Anna Mazurik) leaves war-torn Germany in 1947, and Dara … Continue reading M1 Singapore Fringe Festival 2018: Displaced by Ground Cover Theatre (Review)

M1 Singapore Fringe Festival 2018: The Most Massive Woman Wins by Mitchell Productions Inc. & Chopt Logic Productions (Review)

Mudwrestling meets body image issues as this production weighs in on the way society has taught women to be perceived and to perform.  Since the dawn of time, humans have always been obsessed with their bodies, and perhaps, none more so than the female body. Brought up on a steady diet of women’s magazines with stick thin covergirls, constantly told that ladies shouldn’t be eating … Continue reading M1 Singapore Fringe Festival 2018: The Most Massive Woman Wins by Mitchell Productions Inc. & Chopt Logic Productions (Review)

M1 Singapore Fringe Festival 2018: Attempts: Singapore by Rei Poh (Review)

There’s no need for any hints as to how much we enjoyed this impeccably produced participatory theatre experience.  In a world of innovative theatrical experiences, you often come across too many that scrimp on either execution or narrative. That’s not the case for Rei Poh’s Attempts: Singapore, which provided a thoroughly well-planned out participatory ‘game’ as its audience worked together to unravel a mystery, one clue at … Continue reading M1 Singapore Fringe Festival 2018: Attempts: Singapore by Rei Poh (Review)
