Looking for Pavona
The Coral Nursery has collapsed, and tiny Pavona coral babies are missing! A search party of marine scientists and adult corals are in a race against time to rebuild the nursery and find the lost coral babies before it’s too late.
Looking for Pavona is a highly interactive dance-theatre production that immerses children in the rescue and restoration of our precious coral ecosystem. Through movement, music, and imaginative sets, they will discover Singapore’s diverse marine life and learn about the dramatic impact of human action and climate change on the ocean.
But who is Pavona?
Pavona are magnificent leafy hard corals resembling giant cabbages. They have iridescent colours, and can be found right off Singapore’s Southern shores.
Get your kids excited about our coral species and inspire them to be the custodians of our marine heritage!

The script is written by Cultural Medallion recipient Angela Liong in collaboration with Sam Shu Qin, a marine conservationist dedicated to restoring coral reefs in Southeast Asia.
