ABOUT THE FUN-RAISER SHOW
Recommended for patrons aged 4 and above
Playeum is thrilled to present a special fundraising performance of The Emperor’s New Clothes, Wild Rice’s dazzling musical extravaganza that promises outrageous fun, unforgettable tunes, and a fresh, local twist on Hans Christian Andersen’s timeless tale. Directed by Pam Oei, with a sharp script by Joel Tan and music by Julian Wong, this show is a joyride of style and spectacle.
But beneath all the glitter and giggles lies a deeper truth that speaks to the heart of Playeum’s mission. This story reminds us that sometimes, the clearest vision and the bravest voice come from those least expected. It is a message that resonates deeply with our belief in the voice and agency of every child.
In this celebration of courage, creativity and speaking up, we find a symbol of hope. Hope that when we truly listen to and support our children, change becomes possible.
