SUMMARY:Checkpoint Theatre presents STATEMENT PIECE by Myle Yan Tay
DESCRIPTION:Two weeks after a loss that reverberates through the nation\, a young gallerist prepares for her first exhibition. Lily has endured constant pressure from her formidable boss\, spent countless hours on research\, revved up the public for a buzzworthy show – everything for the perfect opening that will cement her name in the art world. The months of suffering are about to pay off at last. But when the final painting arrives\, hand-delivered by the reclusive Gopal Rangaraj himself\, she is horrified. With the entire exhibition – and her fledgling career – on the line\, even the surprise visit from her artist girlfriend Marjia can’t cushion the gravity of the situation. As three different worldviews collide\, how much should be sacrificed in the name of Art? \nFollowing the sold-out success of Brown Boys Don’t Tell Jokes (2023)\, critically acclaimed playwright Myle Yan Tay returns with Statement Piece\, a new play that continually shifts the lens on how the beliefs and choices that push us apart are often born from a yearning for acceptance and community. His signature blend of sharp humour and acute insight is dexterously brought to the stage by director Claire Wong with nuance\, elegance\, and a sure hand. \nHuzir Sulaiman ably takes on dual roles as dramaturg and performer\, starring alongside Rusydina Afiqah and Tricia Tan in this powerfully vivid work. Statement Piece interrogates the purpose of art in this country\, the limits of our ambitions\, and the legacies we leave.
