Initiated by the National Arts Council
The Present/Future Season: Peepbird
Where movement and puppetry blur to reveal the instability of identity.
Synopsis
Everyday existence is a colourless hue. Then a woman transforms into a crow. The woman is a crow, a voyeur and a destabilizing self-loather. Its quest – to peep and mimic, lurk and conceal, deceive and try, to, be. “Peepbird” is a meeting place between puppetry and movement aesthetics, an exploration of destabilized identities and the state of being colourless.
Helmed by The Finger Players Co-Artistic Directors, Ellison Tan and Myra Loke, “Peepbird” is one of the four theatre productions presented by The Finger Players as part of “The Present/Future Season”. It is part of the live performance pilots initiated by the National Arts Council, where a limited number of seats to this performance will be made available to the public, subject to safe management measures in effect at the venue. Limited seats are available!
