SYNOPSIS

Synopsis

A Theatre-In-Education piece created and directed by directors Andrew Koh and Julius Foo, The Bridge draws elements from familiar myths recreating a small town where tradition is threatened by technology. The use of an ancient tale allows creative distance where students are more willing to participate and appreciate. Land that has traditional significance for the town is threatened when a neighbouring city decides to build a road through it. Under the guidance of experienced actor-facilitators, students role-playing as town citizens and city dwellers attempt to resolve the conflict between progress and preservation. This exercise encourages students to examine values, social needs and self-expression.
