Step into the surreal world of Boom, where civil servants wake the dead, corpses are terrified of cremation, mothers are besieged in their homes, and Ah Bengs still dream of being Superman. Boom tells the story of a woman and her property agent son, who are at loggerheads over the potential en bloc sale of their home. Their destinies become interwoven with that of an idealistic civil servant, Jeremiah, who is facing the greatest challenge of his career—persuading a reluctant corpse to yield its memories.
Join us for a quirky yet poignant tale about the relocation of both dead and living, how personal stories get left behind in the inexorable march of progress and to imagine theatre with us in the eclectic space of Projector X: Riverside Point (which used to be a Thai nightclub!)
