Welcome to a Season of Brilliance at the 2005 Singapore Arts Festival!
The Festival will, once again, feature an international array of artists in 22 main productions with 67 ticketed performances, and over 400 free performances, exhibitions and special events.
The main programme comprises mainstream productions and contemporary and cutting-edge programmes. This continues to reflect the innovation and risk-taking, which are the hallmarks of the Festival. Highlights of this year's festival include several blockbusters productions, World and Asian premieres, and co-productions involving Festivals and arts organisations in Hong Kong, Korea, China, and Europe. In addition, do not miss out our enticing Outreach offerings, including our Special Events, Arts on the Move, Weekend Highlights, Asian Showcase and the Closing Celebrations.
On behalf of the National Arts Council, I would like to thank our sponsors and coniributors who have made this Festival possible with their generous support.
Get ready to be dazzled by the brilliance of the quality artists and performances at the Singapore Arts Festival 2005!
– Liu Thai Ker (National Arts Council Chairman)
