Attempts: Singapore
Organised by: M1 Singapore Fringe Festival 2018Performed by: Rei Poh
Synopsis:
Corporate conglomerate ARC has reached out to the public in a bid to decipher a mysterious databank that has surfaced on their Artificial Intelligence (AI) system named J.O.A.N.. Your profiling skills are urgently required to halt this potential international crisis. Attempts: Singapore is an immersive theatrical experience that draws inspiration from Martin Crimp's Attempts on Her Life. It takes audience-participants through a non-linear narrative pieced together through the accounts of various witnesses who attempt to describe a missing character named Anne—and in doing so, may incriminate her in the ARC incident. As we collectively try to define her, are we closer to understanding—or destroying—her? Attempts: Singapore will be performed by Farez Najid, Henrik Cheng, Julie Wee, Sabrina Sngand Suhaili Safari.
Due to the nature of this work, only 22 audience-participants will be admitted per show.
