| Description |
This is a play about contemporary Singapore. It focuses on small things. Watching Bumboat! is a little like going through a photo album. Each image or scene is complete in itself, but one is more telling, another more funny, another more disturbing. Together the scenes in Bumboat! amount to an impression of Singapore today. Not a statistician's view, nor a historian's, nor even a city planner's, but an artistic view. And this was simply the result of inviting a number of Singapore writers to dramatize a few personal perspectives of the world around them. |
