The Swimming Instructor

Ripple has some friends acting in the play "the swimming instructor" and we went to watch it

It's staged at a place i never knew, somewhere along waterloo street, it's this place where there's a restaurant on the first storey and on the second storey, there's a place for staging plays and it can take around 100 audience. it's called the room upstairs, quite cool right?

Went to the food centre nearby for a super quick dinner because we were afriad we cannot find the place. bedok chuew kuey is always a good choice when you do not want to eat too much.. yumyum.. after that we walked the whole waterloo street looking for number 42... and we finally found it with this poster right at the gate.

We were early, and there was some time to look around to check out the place, take some photos, before going upstairs to choose a good seat for the play. didn't know what this play was about, but since i like watching live performances, and it's ripple's treat, why not right?

The story line seems a little cheem, a person who's unsure if he likes woman or man, and still doesn't know at the end of the story. very comical, and interesting.. and he gotta kiss the girl and also the guy.. and he does it everyday? .. wah!! pei fu pei fu...
Here's ripple with 2/3 of the cast.. jeremy and isabella (i was quite surprised when i waas told the play has only 3 people acting), and they all did a wonderful job.. bravo!

i like the photos!!! never send me... hahau got improve le.....
yup i think the show is really good bcoz its pretty hard to sustain the audience interest with only 3 ppl (unless u r very self-fulfilling like borong n jowie...). so they (the actors) are REALLY GD!!! haha

Hi,

Pardon me for asking...since u like going for plays so much, can I ask u for advise with regards to the Esplanade Recital Studio? Any idea how is it like? It's seems free seating cos no seat no. available.

Sorry for taking up your time.
