About the event

HOME (Singapore International Festival of Arts 2025)

On stage a house appears from nothing. It goes up fast choreographed like time-lapse photography. Residents move in move out get evicted burn it down loot it rent it remodel it get married and divorced in it grow up in it die in it haunt it. And all the while they leave and live among traces of residents from the present past and future. They throw a party as if everyone who ever lived there cohabitated transcending time and space. 


HOME is a large-scale performance work that explores and explodes the relationship between “house” and “home”. A visual and physical spectacle HOME combines dance illusion live music homespun engineering and inventive audience interaction to compose a work that asks “Where is home? If it is not a place what is home?” 


HOME aims to awaken us to current housing dilemmas local and global. The universal and timely themes of gentrification and migration are rendered in the choreography of ordinary people inhabiting a structure leaving that structure through a variety of social political personal and aesthetic forces and replacing one another. HOME seeks to use the house of the theatre as a lens through which we might see the impact of these forces at work—the illusion of home; the transitory nature of dwelling; the constraints of time and money; the impossible structural demands of a house; the absurdity; and at times the impossibility of trying to make a house a home. In the face of entropy we struggle to build infrastructure family community art. We fail and we try again.
