In the beginning, God created despair, for men to find hope within. Someone heard someone else say this somewhere before, sometime back. But no one knows who, when and where. It must have been God herself who had said this through some men. Only God could be that smart to tease men into such futility. And here, men find themselves being baited into their own despair.

Conceptualised and directed by Noor Effendy Ibrahim and Ruby Jayaseelan, Dancing with the Ghost of My Child is an experimental physical theatre performance written by Elvira Foo Jing Yun, Gregory Kong Ka-Ee, Lex (Lee Zhi Qi), and Liu Qintong (Amelia) exploring vulnerability, trauma and the desire to heal. It is devised by students from the BA (Honours) Performance Making programme at Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts, University of the Arts Singapore.
