The Second Breakfast Company presents an unforgettable roving theatrical experience titled Limited Time Only, which is inspired by Hilmi Johandi’s Stagecraft: Landscaped Grounds, a public art commission by The Everyday Museum.
Unfolding amidst the rich tapestry of Wessex Estate, Commonwealth Avenue, Tanglin Halt, Queenstown and the Rail Corridor, this extraordinary adventure with a mysterious travel agency is a one-of-a-kind experience that defies time and space. Embark on this journey to (de)construct the narratives of and our evolving relationship with these dynamic sites.
Choose between voyaging to the past and witnessing the Rail Corridor as a history railway line amidst burgeoning estates, or leaping into the future to behold its transformative developments and untold possibilities. Your decision on this journey determines the outcome of the performance! Which path would you tread?
Limited Time Only is commissioned by The Everyday Museum, a public art initiative by Singapore Art Museum, and conceptualised by The Second Breakfast Company. The use of oral history interviews in this performance is made possible by the support of the Oral History Centre, National Archives of Singapore. Stagecraft: Landscaped Grounds is supported by Sun Venture, in venue partnership with JTC.
This programme is part of A Weekend with The Everyday Museum, a series of programmes surrounding our ongoing public art commissions. Expect to encounter everyday sights, sounds and uses of various sites with fresh eyes. Find out more about the full line-up here.
