Community Tours
Educate. Challenge. Inspire.
We believe that the arts offer a unique way to engage with one another. It allows us to celebrate our similarities and differences in the multicultural society we live in; to explore our feelings and emotions across different stages of life; and to revisit and deepen our understanding of our Asian culture and values that define us.
Since our beginnings, we have been around the little island of Singapore performing in schools, libraries and shared spaces in the heartlands. Our on-tour performances introduce the art of theatre through curriculum-based pieces, which are relevant to current social issues, making them accessible and engaging. These original plays have been well received for its entertainment value and realistic acting, and have offered audiences both young and old a rich theatrical experience with life lessons learnt.
Do follow us our facebook page as we are always on the move around the little island. Come catch us at our performance if we are in your neighbourhood. Or scroll down and fill out the form to join our mailing list for updates.
The following lists some of our current and past on-tour performances. However, the sky is the limit, do contact us for projects we could explore together.
