SUMMARY:PRISM 48
DESCRIPTION:More Than Ever\, we seek dialogue. \nIn 2025\, Singapore marks its 60th year of independence. How has our cultural identity evolved\, and what can we learn from the evolutions of other cultural narratives and strategies? This conversation series reflects on these questions through the lens of SIFA. \nHow do we take the measure of the yawning gulf and uncanny symmetries between a self-perceived cultural desert and a key global node? What is the relationship between festival-making and nation-building? What are the hallmarks and impact of Singapore storytelling? Decades into our post-colonial existence\, how has our relationship with Asia’s traditions changed? How do we master the art of plugging into global circuits\, and what does participation in such circuits mean for art-making in Singapore? What new forms have we invented to make space for difficult conversations? What are the imperatives and challenges of incubating new creative voices in the post-pandemic landscape? \nIn 1977\, the first Singapore Arts Festival kicked off with performances from 77 groups over seven days. In the festival’s 48th year\, these six conversations take stock of how far we have travelled\, and the journey ahead.

SUMMARY:stray gods
DESCRIPTION:久唔唱歌忘記歌\n(A long time without singing\, you forget the song) \nHas all my revelry now stung me blind\nWhose now am I\, if here no longer mine\nBut of the whims of winds and ghosts and rivers\nA hundred mouths in breath in width and bigger\nThan life. I lie beside myself\, both quiet\, still wet\nWith shock as two cuts parallel in the same flesh\nPrized cub\, whose limb from limb I cleft\nHis head screams in my hands \nweish presents a new body of work that draws from an ancient text and incorporates the dying songs and language of her heredity. In this SIFA 2025 commission\, she builds upon and looks beyond her signature sonic palette to discover new approaches to storytelling through music.

SUMMARY:Waiting For Audience
DESCRIPTION:An old theatre on its last night.\nTwo actors\, A and O\, find themselves sharing the stage.\nThey bicker\,\nthey compete\,\nthey create\,\nthey wonder\,\nand they \nwait… \nand wait\, \nand wait. \n“We exist because they exist.”\n“Every play has a beginning / And an end / Life is the same.” \nBut will the audience ever come?\nPlayful yet meaningful\, this production draws inspiration from physical theatre\, clowning\, absurdist humour and Chinese cross-talk\, and challenges us to rethink the bond between performers and spectators. \nWaiting for Audience invites you to step into the story and play a key role in completing this unique theatre experience. Join us in celebrating the power of live performance to connect you and me. \nDon’t miss this bold creation by Nine Years Theatre founders Nelson Chia and Mia Chee.

SUMMARY:Vampyr
DESCRIPTION:Vampyr is a mockumentary about stubborn shapeshifting creatures—half-dead\, half- alive\, half-animal\, half-human\, half-earth—that refuse to obey the mandate of the nature/culture divide. Living in unregulated wind turbine parks in Chile\, these indeterminate beings exist sometimes as disoriented bats\, and sometimes as exhausted night-shift workers. \nA piece about energy and exhaustion\, work and rest\, Vampyr is a work of delirious black humour about the relationship between the non-humans (read: animals) that inhabit our territories and how we relate to their cultures when we consider humankind’s energetic projections for the future. \nA critical and ironic dialogue is established between the myth of the European vampire and the reality of the Chilean hematophagous bat\, a species that dies in large numbers due to wind turbines. This creation of an imagined mythology of a South American vampire presents a critical perspective on green neo-colonialism\, which perpetuates practices of extraction and appropriation of colonial logic that are greenwashed under the guise of green energy production. \nVampyr is the third part of Chilean playwright and theatre director Manuela Infante’s exploration of the non-human that started with Estado Vegetal and How to Turn to Stone.

SUMMARY:The House Between The Winds
DESCRIPTION:Experience a talking installation paying homage to the glorious plantations that lined Orchard Road. Witness a magnificent sailboat travelling across the Empress Lawn. Touch\, feel and create as you go on a pilgrimage of memories through whimsical and playful interactive kinetic installations that take you on a journey through time and space.  \nMany were once drawn to a place where the winds crossed\, where the paths connecting East and West met. There\, they traded\, made a living\, and learned—acquiring knowledge that stretched beyond the borders of their homelands. It was also a safe harbour\, as they waited for the monsoon winds to change and carry them onwards to their destinations.  \nSoon\, this place became home\, and they reshaped the land to suit their lives. The nurturing trees fed their new ideas and ways of doing things\, and with their insatiable and unceasing appetites\, the trees made way for a landscape that would be forever changed.

SUMMARY:LEAR
DESCRIPTION:Man. Father. Fool. \nIn this dark and claustrophobic world\, Lear is the all-powerful patriarch\, but he is also his own fool. Being a fool is one thing. Having power and being a fool is quite another. What happens when the power we hold is taken away? \n“Blow\, winds\, and crack your cheeks! Rage\, blow!” \nThis contemporary re-imagining of Shakespeare’s King Lear will bring together a cast of four with Ramesh Meyyappan’s trademark bold visual storytelling\, exploring universal themes of escalating madness\, loss of power\, betrayal and trust with empathy and a deep understanding of the human condition.

SUMMARY:A Thousand Stitches
DESCRIPTION:A vandalised artwork. An enigmatic painter forced to create wartime propaganda. A desperate act of love.  \nAs Emma\, an art conservation student restores a portrait of a Japanese woman\, Mizuki\, she finds herself transported deep into the heart of Syonan-to—Japanese-occupied Singapore. There\, Emma stitches together the lives of Mizuki\, the artist\, Huang Wei and the storms that raged in and around them. \nA Thousand Stitches is a moving story of friendship\, heartbreak and loss told through a blend of performance\, painting and live cinema. A haunting reimagining of a difficult chapter of Singapore’s history\, this presentation explores the transgenerational impact of war and the necessity of hope in the darkest of times.

SUMMARY:HOME
DESCRIPTION:On stage\, a house appears from nothing. It goes up fast\, choreographed like time-lapse photography. Residents move in\, move out\, get evicted\, burn it down\, loot it\, rent it\, remodel it\, get married and divorced in it\, grow up in it\, die in it\, haunt it. And all the while\, they leave and live among traces of residents from the present\, past and future. They throw a party\, as if everyone who ever lived there cohabitated\, transcending time and space. \nHOME is a large-scale performance work that explores and explodes the relationship between “house” and “home”. A visual and physical spectacle\, HOME combines dance\, illusion\, live music\, homespun engineering\, and inventive audience interaction to compose a work that asks\, “Where is home? If it is not a place\, what is home?” \nHOME aims to awaken us to current housing dilemmas\, local and global. The universal and timely themes of gentrification and migration are rendered in the choreography of ordinary people inhabiting a structure\, leaving that structure through a variety of social\, political\, personal\, and aesthetic forces\, and replacing one another. HOME seeks to use the house of the theatre as a lens through which we might see the impact of these forces at work—the illusion of home; the transitory nature of dwelling; the constraints of time and money; the impossible structural demands of a house; the absurdity; and at times the impossibility of trying to make a house a home. In the face of entropy\, we struggle to build infrastructure\, family community\, art. We fail\, and we try again.

SUMMARY:Told By My Mother
DESCRIPTION:In the second chapter of his trilogy on love\, Lebanese choreographer Ali Chahrour draws from his own family history and in torn-up Lebanon to weave a tapestry of poignant stories. \nAt the heart of it\, a mother\, Leila\, clings to her child Abbas\, striving to shield him from the fate of martyrdom. A little further down\, another mother\, Fatmeh\, who never stopped looking for her missing child\, Hassan. These tales\, echoing through time\, form an infinite loop of love and loss. \nWith their stories\, these ordinary heroines breathe life into the tenderness and fierce intensity of maternal love. On stage\, they give birth to heart-rending family portraits\, so striking in the infinite beauty of filial relations. \nAli Chahrour\, actress Hala Omran\, and musicians Ali Hout and Abed Kobeissy (Two or The Dragon) accompany these narratives with music inspired as much by Arab culture as by urban sounds. Through movement\, song\, words and music\, generations converge and fracture\, like the narrow and unfathomable eternal love between a mother and a child. Absolute.

SUMMARY:Animal Farm
DESCRIPTION:It begins with a revolution. A group of downtrodden animals overthrows their owner\, seeking to build a utopian society founded on fairness and equality. However\, cracks soon appear when Napoleon\, a power-hungry and manipulative porker\, rises to leadership\, using propaganda and violence to consolidate control. The animals quickly find themselves at the mercy of totalitarian tyranny\, shackled by the very principles that were meant to set them free. \nBased on George Orwell’s political satire Animal Farm\, this theatrical adaptation by The Finger Players employs stunning puppetry to illustrate themes of brutality\, conflict\, and oppression. Written and directed by award-winning theatre veteran Oliver Chong\, Animal Farm is a play of discordant harmony\, adopting a darker\, wittier\, and more visceral treatment than the novel’s allegorical approach.

SUMMARY:Umbilical
DESCRIPTION:Umbilical explores the social and emotional ripples resulting from division and transformation\, drawing poignant parallels with the looming uncertainty that was experienced by the people who lived through the separation of Singapore from Malaysia in 1965.  \nA dynamic blend of movement\, music\, visual projections and AI integration\, Umbilical is an immersive performance that delves into the intricate layers of identity\, belonging and relationships. Here\, the umbilical cord serves as an evocative metaphor and symbolic bridge between water and land\, people and places\, and past and present.  \nUmbilical invites us to reflect on the evolving nature of personal and collective bonds in an ever-shifting world\, while embracing technology as both a collaborator and a form of resistance. The multi-sensorial performance magnifies the tension between human and machine\, tradition and innovation.

SUMMARY:Sun & Sea
DESCRIPTION:Sun & Sea by Rugilė Barzdžiukaitė Vaiva Grainytė & Lina Lapelytė (LT) is a programme under Singapore International Festival of Arts (SIFA) 2024. \nSun & Sea takes place on an artificial beach crafted through light architecture and music. Vacationers in colourful bathing suits are lying next to each other on sandy ground while the audience observes them from above as though from the point of view of the sun. \nIn the heat of a summer day characters begin telling their stories. Frivolous micro-stories slowly give rise to broader more serious subjects and grow into a global symphony a universal human choir addressing planetary-scale climate breakdown. In the work the physical finitude and fatigue of the human body becomes a stand-in for an exhausted Earth. \nThe setting a crowded beach instinctively evokes laziness and a breezy holiday mood. In this context the message follows suit: serious topics unfold easily softly-like a pop song on the very last day on Earth. \nAn ecological work at its very core Sun & Sea is concerned with the way in which we-our human species consistently fails to recognise those planetary-scale threats and urgencies we ourselves are the cumulative cause of. \n30 & 31 May 2024\, Thu & Fri\n6PM\, 7PM\, 8PM & 9PM \n1 June 2024\, Sat\n2PM\, 3PM\, 4PM & 5PM \nEsplanade Theatre \n$68

Join her in a thought-provoking journey as she navigates everyday situations: illness and recovery\, waking and sleeping\, giving birth and being born\, ageing and death. ANGELA is made up of millions of experiences\, many of which come from other people’s stories. Ultimately\, she might be nothing but a strange loop\, an endless sequence. The virtual and the real become blurred\, while ANGELA attempts to construct herself and hold it together by repeating her stories. But what happens if we zoom in on ANGELA\, closer and closer\, to understand that self? What is hidden there? \nWith innovative use of technology and a compelling narrative\, ANGELA (a strange loop) takes us on a deep dive into the fundamental questions of existence\, identity\, consciousness and the nature of reality. It is a poetic\, social analysis through the lens of the diseased rather than the healthy. How can a community deal with the individual’s experience of illness? How do we care for each other\, when life comes to an end?

SUMMARY:Leonardo! A Wonderful Show About A Terrible Monster
DESCRIPTION:Leonardo is a terrible monster! He tries so hard to be scary\, but he just… isn’t. \nThen Leonardo finds Sam\, the most scaredy-cat kid in the world. Will Leonardo finally get to scare the tuna salad out of someone? Or will it be the start of an unlikely friendship? \nLeonardo! A Wonderful Show About A Terrible Monster uses hundreds of illustrated paper puppets\, book pages\, two-dimensional props\, furry monster puppets\, and songs to bring Mo Willems’ books to life. This performance re-creates the experience of holding one of Mo’s book pages\, which are big\, bold\, colorful\, and full of visual rhythm\, with a playful use of scale. \nLike all Manual Cinema productions\, you’re invited to watch the big screen like a traditional movie\, or to watch the artists below as they create the story in real time. (There is no wrong way to watch the show!) \nDate: 24 May Friday & 25 May Saturday \nTime: 4pm & 7pm \nDate: 26 May Sunday \nTime: 4pm

SUMMARY:Una Isla
DESCRIPTION:Una Isla by Agrupación Señor Serrano (ES) is a programme under Singapore International Festival of Arts (SIFA) 2024. \nDive into an existential dialogue between artificial intelligence and performance. Una Isla questions and blurs the lines between “us” and “others”\, between human and machine\, exploring themes of agency\, identity\, and coexistence in a digital world. Through a fusion of choreography\, live video\, AI-generated music\, and holographic sculptures\, Una Isla prompts contemplation on the complexities of our interactions with AI\, and the ever-elusive quest for meaningful connections in an increasingly automated world. \nIntegrating physical and digital performance languages\, the performers engage in dialogue with artificial intelligences\, allowing them to generate text\, images\, and music. This collaboration is not concerned with showcasing AI’s potentialities\, but rather harnessing them to reinforce the work’s concept and poetics. In a world where the boundaries between human and machine are ever-evolving\, Una Isla invites us to explore the possibilities of imagining new ways of living together.
