Coming Soon: Edges the Musical
Event: “Edges the Musical” presented by Derrick Chew of Sight Lines Entertainment
Venue: Drama Centre Black Box
Run: 3rd – 19th April 2013
I’m looking forward to this one.
Fresh from staging “Trainstopping” and “Boom” last year, emerging producer/director Derrick Chew of Sight Lines Entertainment is back with a brand new musical production “Edges”.
“Edges” was written in 2005 by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, two 19-year-old undergraduates studying musical theatre at the University of Michigan, and was first staged professionally in New York in 2007.
Since then, the show has been performed over 100 times across North America, Asia, Australia, Europe and Africa, and will make its Singapore premiere next month.
Derrick Chew directs while Sylvia Tan serves as producer for this production.
And in line with Derrick’s vision of nurturing young actors, the cast of “Edges” includes LASALLE’s Musical Theatre graduates Mina Kaye (“Company”, “Into the Woods”), Linden Furnell (“La Cage Aux Folles”, “Cat in the Hat”) and Kristy Griffin (“Goldilocks”, “Betty Boop”).
Benjamin Kheng, one quarter of local indie band The Sam Willows, and voted as one of the faces to watch in 2013 by Straits Times Life!, also joins this stellar line-up of performers.
Full of heart, humanity and humour, the show’s pop-culture references, themes of change and freakishly familiar situations are universal and something that everyone can relate to.
Be sure to get your tickets soon as they are selling out real fast!
