Nine Years Theatre presents God of Carnage《杀戮之神》
2026-03-20 20:00 - 2026-03-29 21:30 (Asia/Singapore) | The Ngee Ann Kongsi Theatre @ Funan, The Ngee Ann Kongsi Theatre @ Wild Rice, Funan, # 04-08, 107 North Bridge Rd, Singapore 179105, Singapore, Singapore, 179105, Singapore
Two boys in a park scuffle. Four well-meaning adults meet to talk. What could possibly go wrong?
In God of Carnage, a simple meeting between two sets of parents, hoping to “peacefully resolve” their sons’ fight, spirals spectacularly out of control. Polite smiles crack, civilities crumble, and a night that begins with pastries and good intentions descends into chaos, candour, and comic catastrophe.
Nine Years Theatre brings you Yasmina Reza’s acclaimed, razor-sharp dark comedy that reveals how thin the veneer of adulthood truly is. Under award-winning director Nelson Chia’s signature precision, and with strong performances from an experienced ensemble — led by NYT co-founder Mia Chee, multi-disciplinary actor-writer-host Oon Shu An, Mediacorp multi-hyphenate artist Cavin Soh, and seasoned stage and film actor Tay Kong Hui — their distinct performance energies collide to create sharp, compelling tension. This work animates every shift, crack, and eruption, drawing audiences into a sharply observed battle of pride, parenting, and personal truth.
Come witness the elegant meltdown.
It’s messy. It’s funny. It’s painfully human.

Performed in Mandarin with English surtitles
Approximately 1 hour 30 minutes, no intermission

EAST OF ABSTRACTION: SHUHARI | SHIBUMI
2026-03-24 17:00 - 2026-05-03 17:00, 2026-03-24 17:00 - 2026-05-03 19:00 (Asia/Singapore) | Whitestone Gallery Singapore, 39 Keppel Road, Tanjong Pagar Distripark, #05-03/06, Singapore, Singapore, 089065, Singapore
Whitestone Gallery Singapore is pleased to present EAST OF ABSTRACTION: SHUHARI | SHIBUMI, opening on 24th March 2026. Bringing together five artists from China, Japan, and Korea — Katsuyoshi Inokuma, Liu Ke, Masayuki Tsubota, Soonik Kwon, and Tetsuo Mizu — the exhibition demonstrates the evolution of Asian abstraction across generations, geographies, and philosophical traditions.
The exhibition’s conceptual framework draws upon the Japanese principle of SHUHARI(守破離), a structure of learning and mastery that translates as “to follow, to break, to transcend.” Complementing this progression is SHIBUMI (渋み), an aesthetic sensibility rooted in restraint, quiet depth, and understated elegance. Together, these concepts offer a lens through which to understand Asian abstraction — disciplined yet exploratory, minimal yet expansive, meditative yet intellectually rigorous.

You Free Hor? 你闲哦? - A Solo Exhibition by Agnes Christina
2026-03-27 12:00 - 2026-04-25 19:00 (Asia/Singapore) | aNERDgallery, 29 Perak Road, 280146, Singapore
“You free hor?” is both an invitation and a jeer – asking if one has spare time or sarcastically saying they have too much time on hand. This solo exhibition by Indonesian artist Agnes Christina is a tongue-in-cheek show exploring the shifting attitudes toward time – how we are filling it, stretching it, valuing it. In modern productivity-driven culture such as Singapore, time, including the spare ones, must be justified. As time becomes currency, the exhibition asks: do we own our time, or does it own us? What does it truly mean to be free?

PLAY DATE
2026-03-28 10:00 - 2026-03-29 16:00 (Asia/Singapore) | Asian Civilisations Museum (ACM), 1 Empress Place, 179555, Singapore
As part of Asian Civilisations Museum’s Level Up Festival, Wormhole takes over the River Room for one fun-filled weekend.

liminal by T.H.E Dance Company
2026-04-03 19:30 - 2026-04-05 16:30 (Asia/Singapore) | Esplanade Theatre Studio, Esplanade - Theatres on the Bay, 1 Esplanade Drive, Level 4, 038981, Singapore
liminal is a new platform by T.H.E Dance Company that brings together new choreographic works by mid-career artists.
The first edition begins as a triple bill with artists from within T.H.E, featuring resident choreographer Anthea Seah, alongside main company dance artists Fiona Thng and Klievert Jon Mendoza. Each presents a work exploring experiences many of us recognise—care, desire, responsibility, longing and choice.
Anthea Seah’s Ma looks at matrescence, examining how identity shifts across generations, as past and future selves surface and inherited memories are carried alongside care, fatigue and love. Fiona Thng’s The Rooms Inside turns inward, reflecting on motherhood as an emotional terrain where tenderness, strength and strain exist side by side. In Laya, Klievert Jon Mendoza explores the pull between desire and freedom, asking what happens when what we long for begins to quietly limit us.
Together, this first edition of liminal brings three mid-career choreographic voices into focus, marking the opening chapter of a platform that will continue to expand and engage with a wider range of artistic voices across Singapore’s contemporary dance landscape.

Delve into the vibrant world of Huxley Secondary School alongside young teacher Lilin as she tries her best to make it through just one more school term. With the pressures of Singapore’s education system intensifying the complex lives of both students and teachers, can any of them survive unscathed? Shaped and brought to vivid life by the sure hand of acclaimed director-dramaturg Huzir Sulaiman, this powerful work forges a contemporary landscape of storytelling unlike any other musical.
Monumental in its impact on all fronts, Secondary: The Musical earned six nominations at the 2025 ST Life Theatre Awards, including Best Original Script for weish, Best Director for Huzir Sulaiman, Best Costume for Max Tan, and Best Supporting Actor and Actress for Teoh Junh Vinh and Rebekah Sangeetha Dorai. With a stellar team guided with flair and nuance by director Huzir Sulaiman, this musical is “a production of breathtaking ambition and riveting quality” (Jom Media).
Deeply moving and extremely timely, this landmark work by Checkpoint Theatre is an unforgettable dive into life in a Singapore school, with all its delicate joys, complicated heartbreak, and unexpected beauty.

The Red Pencil (Singapore)'s Art to HeART Charity Art Exhibition 2026
2026-04-10 12:00 - 2026-04-12 18:00 (Asia/Singapore) | The Culture Story, 2 Leng Kee Road, #03-06 Thye Hong Centre,, Singapore, 159086, Singapore
The Red Pencil (Singapore) is pleased to announce the return of its flagship fundraising event, the Art to HeART Charity Art Exhibition 2026. Returning after its successful inaugural showcase in 2023, the second edition will be held from 10 to 12 April 2026 at The Culture Story, presenting a confluence of artistic excellence and compassionate action.
At its core, the exhibition demonstrates how the visual art medium — the foundation of The Red Pencil (Singapore)’s therapeutic work — can transcend therapy rooms to become a wellspring of inspiration and beauty for the wider community.
With a fundraising target of $150,000, the event invites the public to engage with art not merely as spectators, but as active participants in a movement for mental wellness. Proceeds directly support art therapy programmes that provide underprivileged communities with a vital pathway to emotional resilience.
This year’s showcase brings together over 30 of Singapore’s most esteemed artists, united in their commitment to this cause. The distinguished line-up includes husband-and-wife duo Chow & Lin; veteran contemporary art icon Tang Da Wu; master Chinese ink artist Anthony Chua Say Hua; and artist-curator Zulkhairi Zulkiflee. The exhibition will also pay tribute to the late Chen Yi Quan, whose works serve as a poignant reminder of art’s lasting impact. Further enriching the showcase are contributions from art therapists Yen Chua and Amanda Chen, creating a direct visual link between practice and purpose.
“After a successful inaugural run in 2023, we are pleased to bring back Art to HeART Charity Art Exhibition for its second edition,” said Mr Anthony Ang, Board Chairman, The Red Pencil (Singapore). “This is an opportunity for the public to see firsthand how artistic expression supports mental wellbeing. More importantly, it allows us to rally support for our art therapy programmes, which make a tangible difference in the lives of those who need it most. We are grateful to the artists who have so generously contributed their works to this cause.”
Visitors are invited to adopt artworks through donation. In 2026, thanks to a matching initiative, every dollar donated will count twice, amplifying the reach of this vital cause. Beyond acquisition, the exhibition serves as a vibrant gathering space, offering Art Therapy Experiential Workshops where attendees can gain understanding of the therapeutic process, alongside Artist Talks that provide insights into the intersection of creativity and emotional expression.
Mr Chong Huai Seng, Co-founder of The Culture Story and Advisor to The Red Pencil (Singapore), shared, “When The Red Pencil team approached me about bringing ‘Art to HeART’ to our space, I gladly offered to support as the last event held in 2023 was a resounding success. It is heartwarming for me on a personal level to bring my circle of artists, friends, art lovers and collectors to the same setting and promote the good work done by The Red Pencil. At The Culture Story, we believe in the power of art to forge meaningful connections, spark conversations and inspire us to leave a legacy.”

Brandon Tay: Sangkalan
2026-04-15 - 2026-10-25 | Various Locations, -, Singapore, Singapore, -
Step into Brandon Tay: Sangkalan, an evolving installation of a fictional island ecosystem where fragments of a “lost” coastal culture are shaped through three species — a fruit, an insect, and a bird. Together, their rhythms of growth, flight and song weave a vivid picture of how humans and nature might share perception, memory, and meaning.
Travelling across four regional libraries in Woodlands, Tampines, Jurong and Punggol, the installation unfolds as a living archive that evolves with each presentation. Visitors can encounter new elements over time, making each stop a slightly different experience. Through vibrant textiles, sculptural forms, and archival materials, Singaporean artist Brandon Tay translates the island’s collective memories into a language of colour, geometry, and symbols. Echoing the decentralised logic of blockchain networks, Sangkalan invites visitors to reimagine information systems, their origins and how nature might inspire new ways of sensing, connecting, and remembering.
Brandon Tay: Sangkalan is held in collaboration with the National Library Board. Through the Library showcases, SAM continues to extend contemporary art beyond traditional museum settings and into civic and community spaces, encouraging encounters with contemporary art in unexpected and accessible everyday environments.
Venues:

15 April – 31 May 2026: Woodlands Regional Library
3 June – 19 July 2026: Tampines Regional Library
22 July – 6 September 2026: Jurong Regional Library
9 September – 25 October 2026: Punggol Regional Library

Trace the histories of extinct or near-extinct wildlife in this embossing and relief printing class.

Inspired by Rirkrit Tiravanija’s Extinction series with STPI, create iridescent images of extinct or endangered species on paper surfaced with silver foil, using mark-making to form the raised outlines. These subtle impressions invites participants to reflect on the absence of these neglected lifeforms. The image can then be extended into print, by using the embossed surface as a relief printing plate.

Recommended for ages 12 and above.

D-SIDE: Building Blocks
2026-04-17 19:00 - 21:30 (Asia/Singapore) | Aliwal Arts Centre, Multi-Purpose Hall, 28 Aliwal St, Singapore 199918, Singapore, Singapore, 199918, Singapore
D-SIDE: Building Blocks
A multidisciplinary showcase by alumni of D’Hoppers Dance Crew (DDC) from the National University of Singapore.
D-SIDE is a play on ‘b-side’ — the lesser-known track on a record — reimagined to celebrate our many identities as people and creatives. It’s also a play on ‘decide’: you hold the agency here. Choose how you move through the space, which works you encounter, and what sides of us you uncover.
This production reunites DDC alumni across eight generations, some sharing the stage for the very first time. Dance once felt infinite — now it lives alongside deadlines, adulthood, and the quiet negotiations of a busy life. D-SIDE is our refusal to let it go. It’s a celebration of a passion that has grown up with us, continues to inspire our lives, and come back richer for it.
Note: Some works contain explicit language. Parental guidance is advised.
Warning: Strobe lighting effects will be used during some of the dance performances.

Through textured surfaces and ambiguous narratives, Bintang reflects on the quiet tensions between conformity and self-expression.

Pressure Points by Lucas Tan
2026-04-25 17:00 - 2026-05-24 17:00 (Asia/Singapore) | Haridas Contemporary, CT Hub 2, 114 Lavender Street,Unit05-72, 338729, Singapore
Haridas Contemporary is delighted to present Lucas Tan’s (b. 2000, Singapore) debut solo exhibition with the gallery. Working mainly in figuration, Tan’s practice focuses on capturing small, fleeting moments and sentimentalities from everyday life. Influenced by his engagement with image culture, Tan constructs his compositions through orchestration and mediation, creating works that feel both deeply personal and strangely relatable. Throughout his practice, these moments form a visual language that reflects lived experience and broader emotional patterns.
Pressure Points features 14 new paintings that highlight this focus by exploring the various pressures shaping the artist’s life. Scenes of intimacy, distance, and quiet reflection unfold across the exhibition, revealing vulnerability in Tan’s work as he navigates feelings of belonging and ambition. Rooted in autobiography, the works examine the tension between revealing and controlling, and between the desire to be seen and the urge to self-present. In this body of work, Tan’s focus on the everyday becomes a form of introspection, unveiling an emotional landscape shaped by negotiation, aspiration, and the complexities of modern life.

Under Our Skin – The Body Remembers
2026-04-30 18:30 - 20:00 (Asia/Singapore) | National Gallery Singapore, City Hall Wing, Level B1, The Ngee Ann Kongsi Auditorium, 1 St Andrew’s Road, Singapore, Singapore, 178957, Singapore
If your body could speak, what would it say?
Following the launch of Under Our Skin: Conversations on Gender, Identity, and the Body, we continue this series with its second conversation in our lineup. Titled The Body Remembers, this session brings together a curated group of voices – Dr Jade Kua, Ruby Jayaseelan, Chan Sze-Wei, and Preeti Nair – spanning mental health, embodied movement, film, and content creation.
Across these different fields and practices, they will explore how the body is not just a subject, but a site through which memory, emotion, identity, and lived experience are processed and expressed.
Taking cues from how artists have engaged with the body in Fear No Power: Women Imagining Otherwise and beyond, the conversation explores the body not just as form, but as something that reacts, remembers, and resists. Spend the evening with us as we unpack these ideas together, and explore how they connect to our own experiences in everyday life.
After the session, guests are welcome to view select exhibitions with extended hours till 10pm.

These six tracks were then mixed into a unique composition by music producer LLinh Nguyen.
Nguyen-Chi and Wong will discuss the sonic mix in relation to three of Nguyen-Chi’s recent artworks, made between 2022 and 2025, where sound, collaboration, and knowledge production play a central role.
Free admission. Registration required.

Singapore International Festival of Arts (SIFA) 2026
2026-05-15 - 2026-05-30
Revel in the arts this May through play! The Singapore International Festival of Arts (SIFA), Singapore’s pinnacle annual performing arts festival organised by Arts House Group and commissioned by the National Arts Council, returns from 15 to 30 May with a vibrant constellation of performances, installations and encounters — from epic productions to engaging, participatory works. Led by the call-to-action “Let’s Play!”, SIFA 2026 invites audiences to explore, experiment, engage and be inspired by the arts.
Soak in the Festival vibes at the iconic Festival Village, which makes its return this edition. Free performances, public installations and communal spaces featuring local artists such as The Observatory, The Theatre Practice and Off Root Theatrics welcome festivalgoers from dusk to dawn, on the Festival grounds and beyond. This year, SIFA brings two large-scale and high-impact artistic experiences from the Festival Village to Nexus, Punggol Digital District, enthralling the community with a soaring aerial performance featuring artists suspended 25 feet in the air, and a speculative theatrical procession full of colour, texture, movement and melody.
Local commissioned productions and international works take the stage to bring together a cross collaboration of cultures and disciplines. From spotlighting homegrown cultural icons such as Jacintha Abisheganaden and Dick Lee, and the reimagining of classics such as Ibsen’s Hedda Gabler by the National Theater Company of Korea, and Hamlet by Peruvian company Teatro La Plaza and its cast of actors with Down syndrome, to dance-based productions that blur the lines of reality through holographic technology and stunning stage illusions, SIFA 2026 opens up multiple pathways and platforms for audiences to rediscover the joy and significance of coming together through art.
