IN HER SHOES, written and performed by triple-threat show monkey extraordinaire, Kimberly Chan, is a sole-baring journey that touches those soft-spot conundrums of a being a woman. Together with award-winning Singaporean director Samantha Scott-Blackhall, Chan sets out to explore the trauma and jubilations of love, as she walks those beaten paths embodied by several pairs of shoes.
A developing piece of work looking to tour future international festivals, this piece also sees Chan collaborating with accomplished contemporary pianist and classical music maestro, Aloysius Foong to present masterful rearrangements of familiar songs and tunes from Stevie Wonder, Lake Street Dive to the musical classics of Kander & Ebb.
Through story, song and dance, and aided by her womanly instincts, this monologue is as an honest reminder to those around her (as well as herself) to embrace the different angles of love - the great, the down right awful, and the forgotten in-betweens.
