The Silly Little Girl and the Funny Old Tree is a play written by renowned Singaporean theatre practitioner Kuo Pao Kun in 1987. The play tells of the story about a strange attachment that a girl develops with an old, funny-looking tree in her school. However, development and construction plans by the adults for that area threaten to put an end to this friendship. Despite exhausting all means, the girl fails to protect the tree from the construction cranes. In a rapidly transforming society, how do we respond to the changes and dissolution of our culture and environment?
