[Media Invite] PAW Patrol Live! 'The Great Pirate Adventure'

Image
I always felt that young children should expose themselves to live theatrical productions, as it is a chance for them to gain exposure to the performing arts! A staged show can help them both creativity as well as in cognitive development. The PAW Patrol Live! brought 'The Great Pirate Adventure' to Singapore, at the Sands Theatre, Marina Bay Sands . My six-year-old niece, KaeGirl and I made our way to the Sands Theatre. When the beloved pups – Marshall, Rubble, Chase, Rocky, Zuma and Skye were singing on the stage with their dynamic songs, KaeGirl grooved to the beat in her seat! The story was about Ryder and his team of pirate pups to rescue Cap'n Turbot from a mysterious cavern. Along the way, they also discovered a secret pirate treasure map! The show was filled with lively performances, catchy songs, and plenty of opportunities to cheer for the heroic pups.  The engaging performances, catchy music, and interactive elements created a lively atmosphere that kept the li...

I had the pleasure of attending the Gala Night of 'The Mongol Khan’ at the Sands Theatre, Marina Bay Sands, Singapore all thanks to Base Entertainment Asia.  It was quite the experience seeing mongolian culture and drama being executed on a live stage, which I thought was definitely worth experiencing. The choreography was breathtaking! I really enjoyed the Mongolian traditional dances and elements from various ethnic groups, which added a dynamic and culturally rich layer to the performance. The production is in Mongolian with English/Chinese subtitles which were shown on various screens near the stage. I think this led many viewers to comment that the reading depending on your eyesight and seat position. Occasionally I missed the translation because I was too engrossed on the stage performance, & vice visa. This theatre pr...
