Coming Soon: Firefly In The Light

Event: Firefly in the Light
Venue: The Arts House (Chamber)
Date: 15th Nov 2014

We always love new original musicals, and thus “Firefly in the Light” caught our attention.

The book, music and lyrics are all written by Shayna Toh, a seventeen-year-old student of Raffles Institution who’s had multiple accomplishments in the field of composition, scoring and even script-writing, while Tabitha Loh, a first-class honours graduate of LASALLE, directs.

“Firefly in the Light” is a pop musical, and tells the story of Wendy, a beautiful and talented teenage schoolgirl, who knows she is destined for great things.

In her shadow is her childhood “friend” Jake – unassuming and insecure – who (finally) finds his strength in Wendy.

Beckoned by the brightness of a future in a city thousands of miles away, Wendy leaves her small hometown to follow her dreams.

A protective mother, her elusive husband in the entertainment business – a shrewd artist manager – amidst adoring friends and fans alike, all wittingly or unwittingly direct the destinies of Wendy and Jake as they search for themselves, love, and success, finding themselves treading on similar grounds but taking very different paths, not once but twice in their young lives.

“Firefly in the Light” is Shayna’s first full-length pop musical.

The show only runs for one night so get them tickets before they’re gone!

Show Duration: Approx. 1hr 45 mins (with 15 mins interval)
