Seems like I only write once a year or something. blogging just isn't my thing obviously.

E now has a baby sister, she was born November 5th. I haven't met her yet, waiting for the 1 month confinement to be over. this means that he is already 5 years old. how did that happen? where did the time go? they moved out of their in-laws to their own home in Yishun, which is freaking miles away. we haven't seen as much of them in the last year. I suppose it is also because he is older now and has started kindergarten.

as for me, this year has been alright for work. I have done a few more plays since the last entry. most recently, HOTEL for the Singapore International Festival of Arts. It was a total success, received such great reviews all round, an instant classic. Crazy. Wild Rice have decided to rerun it next year in July as part of our Theatre Festival. And the show has been invited to a festival in Japan next October too.  I am really thrilled about that.

I also worked with Oliver Chong of the Finger Players in "Off Centre". it was my first time working with him, what a wonderful company it was. I hadn't worked with masks for a long time. Then there was also "Descendants of the Admiral Eunuch" as part of the same Sg50 series by the Esplanade. That was directed by Jeff Chen, and I only contributed a voice over for one section of the play.  And I started the year with my first play with Pangdemonium, a wonderful piece about acting called "Circle Mirror Transformation". It was great fun acting in an American play, using American accents, what a gift to be able to practice that.

And now I end the year with another play by Alfian Sa'at. It is called GRC and produced by Teater Ekamatra.  Malay theatre is a lot more relaxed than English language theatre.  As always, I am just grateful to have work.
