Between The Lines: Rant & Rave II
Simultaneously a crash course in, and a love letter to SingLit, Between the Lines: Rant & Rave II takes you on an odyssey of how the English-language literature scene in Singapore has evolved through the decades: from the literature during our post-colonial days, to the advent of book retail giant Borders in the 1990s, to the literary activism that have galvanised writers and readers today.
Relive the conversations and events that made history with actors Serene Chen and Jean Ng as they take on the roles of real-life poets, novelists, publishers and many more in this loving tribute to the written word. This play will make history, quite literally.
This production was presented by The Finger Players and commissioned by Singapore Writers Festival.
