Raimi Safari started his foray into theatre by assistant stage managing for Noor Effendy Ibrahim’s Bilik Ahmad. Following which, he dabbled in acting for theatre, TV and film for both English and Malay audience. In 2012, he also starred in a short film under director Tan Bee Thiam for Kopi Julia, a film tribute to the Malay horror films made in the 50s in Singapore under 13 Little Pictures. In 2016, he acted for Singapore Theatre Festival for a double bill titled Riders Know When It’s Gonna Rain.

Always curious and thirsty to learn, he then dove straight in into playwriting, staging his first full piece titled LOCKDOWN under the guidance of Aidli Mosbit, presented by Hatch Theatrics. 

His latest writing works include Landing for Late Night Texting under C42 in 2018 as well as collaborating with fellow Main Tulis Group members to present Pitch Witch for BooksActually’s SingLit Festival and a 15 minute piece titled Welfare Assistance for Singapore Writers Festival in 2019. 

In 2020, as part of a work presented under SingLit Station and New Light/New Works, he presented a piece titled Apa Yang Tinggal Selepas Selamat Tinggal and in 2022, he presented his second full length piece, Rindu di Bulan as part Rupa Co.Lab, under the banner of M1 Fringe Festival.
