Every year, when 9 August rolls around, we put on our red and white outfits, we hang up our flags and we sing our songs. The Red Lions descend, the F16s roar and the tanks roll across our television screens. The Kallang wave sweeps across the stands, people laugh and dance and cry, and we keep on marching from Third World to First.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For as long as most of us can remember, there has been no other way to think of Singapore\u2019s National Day. But what if we could re-imagine how we commemorate and celebrate this historic day? What untold stories would we share? Who would we want to see representing us in our parade? And what songs would we write and sing to one another?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An irreverent satire that doubles as a love letter to a country with which we all have a complicated relationship, National Day Charade<\/em> will make you laugh, think and talk about this place we call home. Don\u2019t miss this brand-new play from award-winning playwright Thomas Lim, who has won the hearts of audiences with profoundly insightful modern classics like Grandmother Tongue<\/em> and Supervision<\/em>. Come decked out in red and white and join us for a National Day celebration unlike any you\u2019ve experienced before!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
