An Evening in Dreamland
Following last year’s acclaimed performance
of
The
Taming of the Shrew
, ABA Productions
brings Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre back to
Singapore – this time, for a four-night run of
A
Midsummer Night’s Dream
, a comedy full of
love, magic and trickery and some of the most
amusing love triangles of all time. This original
production features beautiful Renaissance
costumes and imaginative, hand-painted sets, as
well as a talented cast of actors from the Globe
Theatre. See it 13 to 16 November at Esplanade

Who’s Your Daddy?
Mamma Mia!
, the smash-hit musical set to classic
ABBA songs, returns to Singapore for the first time
in a decade. This enchanting tale of family and
friendship, set in a Greek island paradise, follows
soon-to-be-married Sophie, who, on a quest to
discover the identity of her father, brings three men
from her mother’s past back to the very island they
last visited 20 years before. Expect lots of laughs,
colourful costumes and tunes so catchy that you’ll
surely find yourself up and dancing at your seat.
See it from 13 to 30 November at MasterCard
Theatres at Marina Bay Sands. Tickets from Sistic,
