Giveaway! The Enormous Turnip by iTheatre!

Dumpling is a great great fan of performing Arts. She loves the songs, dances and the story line and we have basically been to more than 20 theatrical productions over a span of 2 odd years. 

iTheatre is a non-profit organisation and is one of the production houses Dumpling and I look out for. The most recent production we watched is The Little Red Hen which we enjoyed tremendously. This May and June, iTheatre is once again running ACE! Festival. 

ACE! Festival was conceived with the aim of celebrating, promoting, inspiring and stimulating creativity and artistry in families and children aged 3 to 14, presenting a positive and top quality total arts experience using Singapore’s finest talents and the best from the region and the rest of the world.

iTheatre will be showcasing 2 brand new “World Premiere” productions – The Enormous Turnip, and The Magic Porridge Pot.

  2. Oh, little me should win the tickets because as little as we are in our little lives, we should be given the opportunity to see the big big world out there. A big world that we may not be able to afford with money but perhaps will get to see with our big hearts. And right now, our big act have shared the post =).

  17. Since 2 years ago, Dana has come home from her preschool singing the chinese nursery rhyme 'Ba Luo Bo' and we (Daddy and I) would join in to role play as she sings. We had such great memories of the song...It would be perfect if we can win tickets to bring her to watch the drama too. :)

  22. We haven't been to any play this year as he just started P1 and I wasn't sure of his schedule so did not buy any tickets (which you know have to buy many months in advance). This will be his first play for this year should we win this! Pls! Make him jump up & down in joy and he will be very grateful to you :D

  31. The last play we went to my gals bawled when the giant from jack and the beanstalk made his appearance. Perhaps the enormous turnip would be an appropriate play to try to re-introduce plays to them! Hope to be the lucky one!
