It is not easy to take a 400-year old kun opera piece and make it relevant to today’s audience. Yet that is what director Goh Boon Teck from home-grown company Toy Factory Productions has done. At the closing weekend of Singapore International Festival of Arts (SIFA), I watched local production, A Dream under the Southern Bough. Part 2 of a trilogy, this play follows the adventures of disgraced naval officer Chun Yu Fen’s adventures into Ant Kingdom. It was at times enchanting, at times dramatic. Definitely an interesting and different experience of Chinese theatre. Hope to be able to catch part 3 at SIFA 2020! #SIFA2019 #toyfactory #toyfactorysg #sgtheatre https://www.instagram.com/p/ByMioXmnW4L/?igshid=nrjw6p390dh

Enjoyed “Sometime Moon”, an original musical by Toy Factory Productions last Saturday. It was produced as part of Singapore Chin Kang Huay Kuan (晋江会馆)’s 100th anniversary celebrations. The title of the musical was inspired by a Hokkien proverb on life’s ups and downs: “Sometimes the moonlight shines, sometimes the starlight shines.” The talented cast played multiple roles throughout the musical; some had to learn to speak and sing in Hokkien too. Happy 100th Anniversary to Singapore Chin Kang Huay Kuan! I hope more Singaporeans can support the activities of our clan associations, as well as made-in-Singapore productions by our arts practitioners. 观看了 Toy 肥料厂的音乐剧《有时月光》，感触良多。这部原创音乐剧配合了新加坡晋江会馆百年庆，带我们走入新加坡早期的历史，尤其是先辈们和宗乡会馆为社会发展的贡献。 祝贺新加坡晋江会馆100周年快乐！我希望更多国人能够支持各宗乡会馆的活动，以及本地艺术家的创作。 #ChinKangHuayKuan #ToyFactorySG #SometimeMoon #sgarts #sgtalents
