SUMMARY:M1 Singapore Fringe Festival presents SAME SAME by Dame de Pic/Cie Karine Ponties & Temporary Collective (Belgium & Czech Republic)
DESCRIPTION:Accessibility features: open captions in English for all shows \n  \nIn a world where reason is a nice façade\, the bursting in of non-sense makes us face our relationship with normalcy and allows us to open up to unexplored paths. Somewhere between burn out and brown out\, two women\, exposed to each other like a palindrome in a distorting mirror\, lose their direction and rekindle with their inner wild animals. \n  \nBelgian choreographer Karine Ponties\, leading Czech creative dancer Tereza Ondrová and theatre director Petra Tejnorová explore the boundaries of subtle humour\, irony and absurdity in this award-winning dance-theatre performance. Inspired by silent film actor Buster Keaton whose trademark physical comedy was heightened by his deadpan expressions\, SAME SAME moves us with their depth and sincerity despite the hilarity of the form. \n  \nSAME SAME was awarded Best Dancer of the Year and Special Mention by the Jury at the 2019 Czech Dance Platform. \n  \nPost-show dialogue on 20 January 2024\, with speech to text interpretation available upon request. Please email your request to info@singaporefringe.com before 15 December 2023.

SUMMARY:M1 Singapore Fringe Festival presents THOM PAIN (based on nothing) by Edith Podesta\, Yarra Ileto & Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts (Australia & Singapore)
DESCRIPTION:“Thom Pain is at bottom a surreal meditation on the empty promises life makes\, the way experience never lives up to the weird and awesome fact of being. But it is also\, in its odd\, bewitching beauty\, an affirmation of life’s worth.” \n—The New York Times \n  \nThom Pain is trying to save his life to save your life\, in that order. \nFilled with biting humour\, desire\, and lost innocence\, the Pulitzer Prize-nominated show THOM PAIN (based on nothing) is one ordinary man’s extraordinary search through the wreckage of his life. \n  \nHailed as “astonishing …a small masterpiece” by The New York Times\, this insightful\, at times surreal\, production catalogues the eternal agonies of the human condition in wit and one last-ditch plea for empathy and enlightenment. \n  \nDirected by Edith Podesta and choreographed by Yarra Ileto\, THOM PAIN (based on nothing) is performed by students from the BA (Hons) in Performance Making programme at the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts. \n  \nPost-show dialogue on 19 January 2024\, with speech to text interpretation available upon request.

SUMMARY:M1 Singapore Fringe Festival presents aMoratorium by J’Sun Howard
DESCRIPTION:Accessibility features: open captions in English for all shows \n  \n“… resists essentialist notions of Black masculinity by imagining a world where Black pain… is met with Black tenderness\, care\, and community.” \n—Frenzied H(e)avens: African American Post Exilic Realities \nin J’Sun Howard’s “aMoratorium” by Brianna Alexis Heath \n  \naMoratorium was initially commissioned by the Art Institute of Chicago to respond to its retrospective of Charles Wilbert White\, a visual artist who powerfully interpreted African American history\, culture\, and lives over the course of his four-decade career. \n  \naMoratorium explores Black male identity\, visibility\, temporality\, and its absence\, and further examines death as it relates to the Black church and Black spiritual traditions. It is an intimate performance that expresses generous\, compassionate\,​and loving play between Black and Brown men in our current socio-political climate. \n  \nChoreographer J’Sun Howard and his collaborators performers Dedrick “D. Banks” Gray and Timothy “Solomon” Bowser\, and DJ Jared Brown\, have created a frank and courageous dance-theatre performance. Standing at the intersection between art\, activism\, education\, and social engagement\, aMoratorium challenges racial supremacy\, police brutality\, global anti-Blackness\, homophobia\, and xenophobia. \n  \nPost-show dialogue on 18 January 2024\, with speech to text interpretation available upon request.

SUMMARY:Kafka's Ape by Phala O Phala & Tony Bonani Miyambo
DESCRIPTION:Accessibility features: open captions in English\n50 minutes with no intermission\nRating: General\nAsian Premiere \n“The fact that it’s actually more relevant today than when it was written 100 years ago suggests that the world we currently live in has some serious problems.”\n—Heather Taylor Johnson\, InDaily \n“The audience is left both dumbfounded and in awe at the end of this hour of theatre. It has been a mighty trip into a hideous hypothetical. It has been a display of masterful acting\, it has been a graphic lesson in humanity and an unforgettable experience.”\n—Samela Harris\, The Barefoot Review \nAn adaptation of Franz Kafka’s A Report to an Academy\, Kafka’s Ape is a solo performance about a primate’s struggle to overcome the confines of captivity. The hard-hitting play presents a metaphorical view on South African society\, highlighting the complexities of identity in post-apartheid South Africa as well as in the human race. \nAn ape named Red Peter is captured. In his quest to break out of his confinement\, he learns to imitate humanity and contests identity based on outward appearance. Through his journey\, Kafka’s Ape questions the understanding of otherness. \nMiyambo has received multiple accolades for this powerful performance\, including Winner of Outstanding Performance award at Prague Fringe Festival 2019\, Best Satire Award at New York’s United Solo Festival 2019\, and the Graham F. Smith Peace Foundation Award at the Adelaide Fringe Festival 2021\, among others.

Some of us don’t want to bring children into this world\, others are worried their children won’t have a world to grow old into… but we’ve still got a whole lot of love to give. Rethink what it means to give birth and be birthed\, and dance along with us in this gooey\, camp and interactive subversion of family portraits\, birthing classes\, and evolutionary biology. \nOver the course of the performance\, the audience transforms from strangers to the beginnings of a family. Mother of Compost is a queer and unruly family gathering and a communal grieving for what is being lost and everything left to fight for. \nFrom the minds of queer performance-makers Noémie Huttner-Koros and director Andrew Sutherland\, Mother of Compost asks you to roll up your sleeves this Fringe Festival… Change only comes from getting your hands dirty. \nWith the support of the Department of Local Government\, Sport and Cultural Industries\, Government of Western Australia.

SUMMARY:Django in Pain by Por Piedad Teatro & The Play Company
DESCRIPTION:Digital table-top puppet theatre via video on demand\nContent advisories: This story is about a character who is dealing with depression and contains strong images and language associated with suicidal thoughts and actions. There are non-photographic depictions of injured animals in distress. \nAccessibility features: Closed captions in English. A version with audio description is also available.\n60 minutes with no intermission\nNC16 (Some Mature Content)\nAsian premiere \n“In a world that seems to give us lots of reasons to give up\, Django in Painis a cry of hope”\n—Juan Carlos Araujo\, Entretenia.com (translated from Spanish) \n“A day will come when you might need to kill a wolf; a mad wolf out there\, or a wolf inside of you… ” \nA playwright wants to write a happy play\, but he can’t because his main character is so depressed that he wants to end his life. Hopefully the playwright will find a way to give \nDjango’s journey a happy ending. Or is it the other way around? \nDjango in Pain is an astonishing\, exquisitely detailed and healing piece about depression\, creativity\, and love. Made and staged within the isolation of the early days of the pandemic in New York City\, it used only hand-made puppets and scrap materials found around their\nhome and was filmed on a cellphone. This feature-length table-top puppet show chronicles the often-humorous with razor edges of grief misfortunes and adventures of Django—a puppet loosely inspired by Django Reinhardt\, and a stray dog that keeps getting in his way.\nIt is both a deeply personal yet universal\, multi-layered tale of despair\, loyalty and hope. \nDjango in Pain premiered in New York City in October 2021 to rave reviews. The Spanish version\, Django con la Soga al Cuello has been presented in Mexico and Argentina\, where it received more than 6000 views in just three days.
