Albee, Singapore Theatre

Still suffering with this damn cold, but am off on holiday soon, so that’s good.

Recently been reading, an interview with Edward Albee in the Indy turns out he is viewed as the greatest living US playwright. Some have compared Three Tall Women to Yellow Gentlemen. I like Albee’s quote:

Albee was asked if he wrote like Williams or Beckett. He replied: “Neither. Both. I write like me.”

I’ve also discovered there’s some theatre in Singapore and maybe maybe I will get Yellow Gentlemen performed in Singapore.

I’ve written to a few of these companies:

Singapore Rep Theatre
Theatre Practice
Drama Box
Necessary Stage
Teater Ekamatra
Wild Rice
The Finger Players
Action Theatre
Theatre Works

A couple of replies wanting to read the play but some emails have just disappeared in to the ether.

So, if you know of anyone or you are involved in Singapore Theatre and come across this – please get in touch.

I think I will also give US theatres a go, but I think that could be quite a big project…
