Review: Puffing Bodies by Maya Dance Theatre and IPTanz

★★★☆☆ (Performance attended 4/12/19) A collection of choreographies wrestling with our complex relationship with our bodies and the societal expectations lumped upon them. No matter how unattainable perfection is, it’s curious how much we beat ourselves up for not achieving it. This is a phenomena that applies especially so to the concept of the physical body, the most immediate visual representation of us, bearing the … Continue reading Review: Puffing Bodies by Maya Dance Theatre and IPTanz

Review: Peter Pan In Serangoon Gardens by W!ld Rice

★★★★☆ (Performance attended 29/11/19) Pan-tastic end to W!ld Rice’s 2019 season reminding audiences of the magic of childhood and belief.  The wonderful thing about W!ld Rice’s pantomimes is that while very much focused on creating a year-end show that children can enjoy, these same shows are also very much family affairs, allowing even the adult audiences to slip into the same mindset and simple joy … Continue reading Review: Peter Pan In Serangoon Gardens by W!ld Rice

Review: Sweeney Todd – The Demon Barber of Fleet Street by Atlantis Theatrical Entertainment, Presented by Singapore Repertory Theatre

★★★★☆ (Performance attended 28/11/19) Reimagined version of Sondheim’s macabre musical thriller a refreshing take on an oft-forgotten classic, with Broadway star Lea Salonga a highlight.   In the Victorian era, penny dreadfuls were some of the more popular forms of entertainment, a serialised form of literature that derives its name from how every issue would cost just one penny. As for the ‘dreadful’ portion, well, that … Continue reading Review: Sweeney Todd – The Demon Barber of Fleet Street by Atlantis Theatrical Entertainment, Presented by Singapore Repertory Theatre
