Over the years, and especially after the pandemic, many familiar places such as traditional kopitiams and family-run shops have changed or disappeared, while some have managed to endure. For those who grew up here, these changes are not just physical; they also represent the gradual loss […]

Between dance and storytelling, and all while manipulating sounds and clay, the actor-sculptors will tell a story of the fables, and take you on a journey through time and space. It is as if they are going back in time, digging into the origins of the first stories, perhaps even before words, borders, rules and […]
