The Retrospective: A Festival Of Singapore Plays 1960 - 1990

7 November 1990 – 9 December 1990 @ Fort Canning Park

Synopsis

A festival of Singapore plays from the years 1960 to 1990, The Retrospective is held in recognition of the playwright’s role in the national dramatic fabric. The seven plays chosen for the festival trace the developing consciousness of Singaporeans. The reinterpretation of these seven plays by their respective directors in their search for contemporary themes is of special interest. The festival also represents the beginning of TheatreWorks’ overall focus on the playwright in the 90s. It heralds the beginning of the Writer’s Laboratory in 1991.
