CHAOS
Someone is locked in a room. Someone brings someone else flowers. Someone has tied themselves to a railing. Someone doesn’t know who they are. Someone worries about impending catastrophe. Someone jumps in front of a train. Someone’s heart falls out of their chest. A butterfly has a broken wing.
Brought to life by Conundrum Theatre's Impact Collective (an ensemble of 12-15 year olds), Chaos is a symphony of dislocated and interconnected scenes. A series of characters search for meaning in a complicated and unstable world. Bouncing through physics, the cosmos, love, and violence, they find order in the disorder of each other.
3rd and 4th June at Inspired Arts, 11 Sam Leong Road, Singapore.

I STILL HAVE NO FRIENDS
Part survival tale, part psychological horror, and part coming of age drama, I Still Have No Friends is the darkly humorous story of the teenage survivors of a nuclear bomb that exploded while they were attending an International Youth Leadership Conference.
Set against the backdrop of global and political unrest, the young survivors of I Still Have No Friends must work together to build society anew. Can they do it? Or will the combination of complex personalities, lack of resources, and fragility of power bring them all crashing down?
Will anyone survive in this post-apocalyptic world? Or will the young people discover that, even at the end of the world, they still have no friends?
Investigating themes of power, relationships, community, corruption, mental health and the supernatural, I Still Have No Friends explores whether humans can truly get along, or if our primal and inherent instinct is to covet power and control, no matter the cost. Are we destined to hurt each other to prove our superiority? Or can we act with kindness? What is the world we want to live in?
Show Duration: 60 minutes
