Date: 19-20 Jun 2015Venue: Victoria TheatreDirected by: Selvananthan GWritten by: ArivazhaganProduced by: Avant TheatreDetails: As part of the SG50 celebrations, Avant Theatre proudly presents Quarters, a theatrical extravaganza featuring a multicultural cast that will take audiences back to 1975 Singapore.

Date: 6, 7 and 8 Dec 2012Venue: Arts House Play DenDirected by: Selvananthan GWritten by: Umayal ThiruProduced by: Avant TheatreDetails: Inspired by the play written by Reginald Rose, Twelve Angry Men, this highly-acclaimed stage play attempts to depict the reality of the American legal/jury system. It is presented as an Audience Mediated Play where the audience become the directors and mediates who takes on their favourite roles from the play Twelve Angry Men. This is a first time attempt where actors prepare to perform as any character in the play based on the choice of the audience as the actors enter the auditorium. This play is highly motivating and explores the unknown strength of the actors that truly validates a stage actor’s professionalism.1.0%
