I’m Always With You - a response to Haresh Sharma’s Sea

Dates of Performance: 8th-9th July 2022

Venue: Aliwal Arts Centre

Synopsis: 8 actors find themselves on a boat. A cacophony of stories, songs, and movement emerges. Will you ride the wave with me? Will you promise to be here? A trace right there - it disappears. Peace, be still. Watch how each of our eight Singaporean archetypes navigate their world - holding on tightly to who they think they are, while gradually letting go of their self-importance as they relate to another.
