Review: Acting Mad by The Necessary Stage

Exemplary, no holds barred look at mental health in the theatre industry.

N.O.W. 2019: Stand-up – Fresh + Raw (Review)

A 10-lesson course by one of Asia’s top 10 female comedians pays off for these new comedy hopefuls. Is it possible to even teach an art form as intuitive as stand-up comedy? Sharul Channa certainly thinks so, as she presents the graduating cohort of her very first 10-lesson course for beginners in N.O.W.’s Stand-Up: Fresh + Raw. Transforming the space at 72-13 to a cosier, more … Continue reading N.O.W. 2019: Stand-up – Fresh + Raw (Review)

N.O.W. 2019: Nimita’s Place – Staged Reading (Review)

The tragedy of Partition leaves a haunting impression in this page to stage adaptation. When Akshita Nanda debuted her first novel last year, little did we expect to see it receive a stage adaptation just a year later. Directed by Edith Podesta, the staged reading may not be a full production, but still manages to mostly capture the essence of the original novel, trimming out material … Continue reading N.O.W. 2019: Nimita’s Place – Staged Reading (Review)

Singapore Food Festival 2019: The Mem’s Servants by Project Plait and Artistry (Review)

Site-specific multi-room food and dance experience that leaves us more than satiated. House 18 Temenggong Road is a typical black-&-white house from the old days, one filled with so much history that one would swear it’s imbued with countless ghosts of the pasts residing in its walls. Newly refurbished, it seems only appropriate then that it be the site of Project Plait’s newest production – The … Continue reading Singapore Food Festival 2019: The Mem’s Servants by Project Plait and Artistry (Review)
