Goldilocks and the Three Bears, 11 - 29 March 2015 (Mandarin)

Goldilocks and the Three Bears 
11th to 29th March 2015 (Mandarin)
DBS Arts Centre – Home of SRT

Review:

It was our first time, we had ever been to any play in Mandarin. Thanks to DBS Arts Centre - Home of SRT for inviting us and making it an interesting storytelling. It was a great musical show and we were really happy to see our 5 year old (who's been taking Mandarin lessons) translating dialogues for us. 

Nice costumes, brilliant acts and a perfect ambiance on-stage made it really easy for us despite of having not much understanding of the language. Overall, the story revolved around Goldilocks, Mr. Locks and the three bears. Goldilocks goes for a walk in the forest and finds a house with nobody inside. She goes in to the kitchen and finds three different bowls of porridge and eventually eats the one she likes. As she walks in, she finds the three chairs and three beds in the house. While she takes a nap, the three bears, who are the real occupants come back and find about her and the mess she had made in the house. Upon waking up, she gets scared to see them standing in front of her. She screams and tries to run away. She had not known that the house belonged to the three bears. Moral of the story was to tell children not too fiddle with the belongings of others, otherwise there are consequences to face. 

If you have a love for Mandarin and you want your kids to have fun and a laugh then this musical - interactive show is a must to go. The crowd was cheerful and happy.

The Three Billy Goats Gruff 
From 2nd April 2015

Two great shows for the whole family to enjoy Singapore Repertory Theatre’s The Little Company (TLC) is launching their 2015 season with a smorgasbord of five musicals and plays, promising a colourful array of classics for the family to choose from. We are proud to present the season’s two first exciting upcoming productions Goldilocks and the Three Bears (in Mandarin) in March followed by The Three Billy Goats Gruff in April.

Having trouble deciding what to watch? Great news! We are now offering a TLC Season Ticket with discounts up to 20% enabling our young audiences to catch several shows of their choice without bursting the budget. 

Perfect for kids aged two to six, The Three Billy Goats Gruff is part of a trio series written by award-winning musical writers Anthony Drewe and George Stiles (Broadway’s Mary Poppins, Just So, and Peter Pan: A Musical Adventure). The musical is based on the classic Norwegian fairy tale, De tre bukkene Bruse, and tells the tale of three male goats that must find a way to escape the clutches of an evil troll in order to reach the other side of a river to find food. 

The hugely successful Goldilocks and the Three Bears enjoyed sell-out houses with its English production in 2013. Now, TLC is introducing the Mandarin version of this classic story for bilingual children and budding linguists.

Featuring music and lyrics by the same dynamic duo, Anthony Drewe and George Stiles, this rendition of Goldilocks and the Three Bears is as classic as it gets, reminding the little ones of the importance of respecting the privacy and property of others.
