0 comments
Hi Huneybees, 


What if the famous Shakespeare love story we all know so well had a different ending where Juliet chose her own fate? Remix it with some of the most iconic pop songs of the last three decades, comes an uplifting story of self-discovery, empowerment, and love - & Juliet.

In fair Verona, where we lay our scene...

Base Entertainment Asia is excited to announce that & Juliet, is coming to Singapore for a strictly limited season from 21st September to 8th October 2023 at Sands Theatre, Marina Bay Sands, for its Asian premiere! & JULIET is produced by Michael Cassel Group in association with MTM/Leyline and presented in Singapore by Base Entertainment Asia.


From the writer of Netflix’s Schitt’s Creek - David West Read; directed by Luke Sheppard (In the Heights); music from legendary five-time GRAMMY® Award-winning songwriter/producer Max Martin; choreography from Jennifer Weber and stunning set design from Soutra Gilmour, & Juliet has taken Broadway and West End by storm, winning 3 Olivier Awards and an impressive 9 Tony Awards nominations under its belt.


The show takes a fresh and contemporary look at Juliet taking control of her own destiny and embarks on a journey of self-discovery. It also includes many other extremely relevant overarching themes for the community we live in today, including empowerment for both women and men and inclusivity; presented by a diverse cast that also has members from the Aboriginal, Filipino, and Sri Lankan communities. 


You'll be enjoying a fun night of storytelling as Juliet’s hilarious and inspiring new story bursts into life through a playlist of pop anthems including  “Since U Been Gone‚” “Roar,” “Baby One More Time,” “Larger Than Life‚” “That’s The Way It Is,” and “Can’t Stop the Feeling”.

A Sweet Deal To Catch Kinky Boots Before They Strut Out This Sunday

| |
Hi Huneybees,


The night was glaring red when we attended Kinky Boots Media Night, glitz and glitter to celebrate this long-awaited musical to arrive at our island. It was an exceptional musical that was entertaining and uplifting, giving us a contrasting storyline that 'sings' out to me.


Based on the 2005 British film of the same name, Kinky Boots follows Charlie Price (Lance Bordelon) as he inherits ownership over his late father’s shoe factory. But times are hard, and Charlie is forced to either sell the business or find a miracle. So, there comes the fabulous Lola (Jos N. Banks), a larger than life drag queen who just may be the answer to all his problems, as the factory innovates and works to create a new line of boots that are comfortable for drag queens. Racing against the clock as they rush to complete a full collection to show at Milan, both Lola and Charlie are also forced to confront their own personal demons as they’re haunted by memories of their late fathers and pressures at the workplace. All falls into place at the end and the musical ends on a high note.


The stage design and high energy dance choreography, got me immersed in the world of shoemaking and I find myself tapping and dancing to the songs, every scene brought out emotions, tugging our hearts. 


I love the message behind such a fun musical too, being open-minded, accepting those around us without judging and bringing us into the inner world of the LGBTQ is applaudable. With Kinky Boots being such an iconic piece and strong message to bring across, I find this is a musical that everyone has got to watch and the world will just be a much better place with more big hearts acceptance.


My favourite scene has got to the part where everyone gets together to perform “Everybody Say Yeah”, where they celebrate the construction of the very first pair of the red glitter kinky boot. The creative use of the conveyor belt, each Angel and Lola being able to shine and strut their stuffs on the belt. It left us on a high note before heading off to a break for Act 2 and that left us wanting to the break to end quickly and continue with the story-telling...


This has been one of my favourite musical this year and I hate that you will have to miss it when they end the round this Sunday. So, here is a special promotion for you priced at S$200: 





I hope you will enjoy Kinky Boots as much as I did. Kinky Boots plays at the Sands Theatre at Marina Bay Sands from 5th – 14th October. Tickets available from SISTIC and for more information, go to www.MarinaBaySands.com.

Get Wicked with Robinsons

| |
Hi Huneybees,


At the recent event with Cosmopolitan Magazine Singapore at Robinsons @ MBS, I got to catch a glimpse of the costume and concept behind the big Broadway musical hit, WICKED.


WICKED is a winning musical of 35 major awards, including Tony Awards and Grammy Awards. Declared as "The Best Musical of the Decade" by  Entertainment Weekly and a "Cultural Phenomenon" by Variety, the musical is based on the novel by Gregory Maguire.

It is the untold story of the Witches of Oz. Long before Dorothy drops in, 2 other girls met in the Land of Oz. One, born with green skin, is smart, fiery and misunderstood. Whilst the other is beautiful, ambitious and very popular.

WICKED tells the story of their remarkable odyssey, how these 2 unlikely friends grow to become the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good.

And on this day, I am very honoured to be able to see some of the costumes before watching the musical itself....
