A Man Waiting For The Leaves To Fall
A Man Waiting For The Leaves To Fall is a digital performative narration that chronicles the pivotal events in a man's life. This 15-minute-long digital production explores the relationship of the film medium within a new theatre paradigm where theatrical design takes centre stage as characters.
Supported by the National Arts Council Digital Presentation Grant, The Aesthetic Project focuses on the theatrical design language intersecting with screen medium to create a new experience of theatre, in the absence of dialogue and actors.
"I think the best way to explore the evolution of Theatre would be to go back to what we love about theatre - telling the story." Judee Tan, director.
Helmed by director Judee Tan, The Aesthetic Project presents its first digital production, examining themes surrounding broken and lost communication and the societal gaps caused by modern society's rapid evolution that force generations and social tribes apart.
No dialogue. No actors. How do we present a narrative that is driven by theatrical design choices and the camera?
Details: Streaming online from 22 – 31 March

Ma Courage
Mother Courage and Her Children was written in 1939 in response to the rise in facism and Nazism in Germany. Brecht chose to locate this story in the 17th century’s Thirty Years' War and it follows the fortunes of Anna Frieling and her three children. Determined to create opportunity out of crisis, Anna’s efforts ultimately prove fruitless and lead to the loss of all her children. The play serves as a moral compass for anyone who seeks to benefit from calamity and suffering. Ma Courage takes loose inspiration from Brecht's original, relocating the play and its concerns to a Singaporean context. The play is performed by the LASALLE Diploma in Performance students , in collaboration with the LASALLE Diploma in Theatre Production and Management programme.
Director: Samantha Scott-Blackhall
Based upon: Mother Courage and Her Children by Bertolt Brecht
