Idelle has moved on with alarming haste from being an appropriately meandering undergraduate at the National University of Singapore to one about to finish with a major in English Literature and a minor in Theatre Studies. The privilege of having been able to explore the arts is not lost on her, and she seeks to retain always a childlike generosity and humility in her appreciation of the arts in their startlingly varied forms, and also in her criticism of them. She believes very much in the importance of reviewing as a tool for advocacy and education, to journey alongside local practitioners and audience members alike in forging a more thoughtful, sensitive arts community.
She enjoys theatre research (particularly in the realm of intercultural theatre) and has Very Large and Considerable Soft Spots for musical theatre and chamber music. Other hobbies including dashing after public transport, religious poetry and Christian theology, very cheesy omnibus romance flicks, and considerate conversation. She also writes and sings a little.
