103453    Between You and Me

103454    Themed ‘Between You and Me’, this “up-close” approach for the Singapore Arts Festival this year will definitely interest you if you enjoy getting into the thick of things.

103455    Aimed to help festival goers develop a sense of identity, and with performances that are experiential, educational, “hands on” and intimate, this year’s edition is sure to keep audiences at the edge of their seats.

103456    There’s something for everyone with so many highlights at this year’s festival, but there are also several which stand out from the crowd.

103457    In Cargo Kuala Lumpur-Singapore, go behind the scenes of a day in the life of long-distance delivery truck drivers, where audiences get to visit hitherto unseen-to-the-public back lanes, delivery depots and warehouses in the travelling truck.

103458    As spaces are limited for each truck, do move swiftly if you want tickets.

103459    If you’d like something a lot less mobile, take the chance to watch a Korean adaptation of Macbeth in Lady Macbeth.

103460    For the time in the history of the Esplanade – Singapore’s eight year-old premier arts and entertainment venue – this production will see audiences seated on the stage.

103461    Watch as the story of a maligned character unfolds before you in an utterly mesmerising version of this Shakespearean classic.

103462    Another interesting highlight is renowned Indian theatre director Roysten Abel’s Manganiyar Seduction, where nearly 40 folk singers from Rajasthan sit in neatly arranged squares placed vertically and horizontally on top of each other.

103463    Think of it like a highly intoxicating meld of the allure and seduction of an Amsterdam bordello, with the physical arrangement of the TV game show Hollywood Squares, and the haunting lusciousness of ancient Sufi-influenced Indian music.

103464    These are just three productions out of over 50 different events during this 30-day festival – a tiny slice of what will whet your appetites for this wonderful celebration of the arts.
