In Waiting, we watch three waiters going through ups and downs together. As we journey with them, we realise that they are a kind of family as well. The work place is like a family. We spend lots of time at work and over time, we experience each others' idiosyncrasies, work-styles and attitudes. With some acceptance and understanding, we come round to having to deal with each other. Time and a listening ear can be all that matters when we need some attention and appreciation.

In Late Nights, we witness how a family undergoes a predicament of bringing up an adolescent daughter. What are the channels of communication available and how does a typical Singaporean family manage tensions and conflicts?

Sometimes living together for a long time makes it more difficult to communicate and we often opt to sweep things under the carpet than address them.

Travelling. Singing. Food. Incense. Forgetting. Remembering. Out of Body. Out of Sight. Out of Mind. Using a fragmented collage made up of text, images and music, this theatrical exploration will scrutinise issues and themes in the various permutations of the universal parent/child relationship.

Upon studying the types and lifes of wasps, I have discovered the likes of social wasps, paper wasps and yellow jackets otherwise known as Vespula Vulgaris. It is an exploration of both opinions of silence and opinios that intend to injure or damage. A preformative structure will be installed to create an environment in which the complex relationships between the mass media and public opinion will be juxtaposed and challenged.
