Synopsis:
Once a school, a World War II shelter, and now a house for arts companies, ONE-TWO-SIX Cairnhill Arts Centre is a time capsule of stories intertwined with Singapore's historical landscape over the past century.
In 2024, The Finger Players presents Puppet Origin Stories @ ONE-TWO-SIX: Temporary Occupation, the third instalment of the company's annual offering at their artistic home. With Core Team Member Chong Tze Chien as the Dramaturg and Curator, Temporary Occupation pays homage to the transient lives, stories, and moments that have shaped the common narratives of the space. He is joined by lead artists Sound Designer and Composer Ng Jing, Movement Artist and Dancer Ma Yanling, and Theatremaker Edith Podesta, who will transform the heritage building into an artistic playground, reflecting themes of personal and urban history, birth and aging, and the impermanence of art – everything transient and in between.
