Body Text

Rei Poh is a theatre practitioner, director and actor interested in the use of gaming narratives within participatory theatre. As a citizen of "meritocratic" Singapore, Rei believes in embracing and celebrating failures.

He is a proud graduate of the Victorian College of the Arts’ Master of Directing for Performance programme and is the founder of a participatory performance collective ATTEMPTS. Rei has created thought-provoking participatory and forum theatre works like ATTEMPTS:SGATTEMPTS:MEL and《莎莎》Girl In the White Sand Box. Rei’s recent projects include the showcase of DATING SIM (beta) — a participatory piece that experiments with video game-style narrative in LATE NIGHT TEXTING 2019 (Centre 42’s showcase of original text-based works by some of Singapore’s most promising independent theatre-makers), and DATING SIM’s multiple online versions in 2020 and 2021.
