#2 Hurstville: The Heir

Take the opportunity to travel back to a simpler time with Hurstville: The Heir, a brand new multi-sensory, immersive theatre production by Underground! Go all the way back to the 1930s, at the very height of the Great Depression. Expect to find yourself lost in a new world complete with a rustic town square, chapel, bakery, and plenty of other secret rooms to uncover in the exploration of Hurstville.

Something unique about Hurstville: The Heir is that you will be given almost complete freedom to explore the space, bookended only by an opening scene and an ending scene. Choose to follow over 20 distinct characters through the course of the evening, each with their own unique path and individual stories to be discovered. Unlike almost any other theatre performance in Singapore, the outcome of the stories are not fixed and are dependent solely on the decisions you make. How cool is that?

The process of self-discovery and physically exploring Hurstville will expend plenty of energy so Underground also has a solution to that — an optional, thematic 3-course meal comprising an appetiser, entree and dessert. This menu will be integrated into the storyline and takes the form of a rustic 1930s-style banquet within the village, further adding to the immersive quality of the production. A vegetarian option will also be available and all guests will receive one drink, either alcoholic or non-alcoholic.

An industry-led movement to celebrate stories from Singapore, #BuySingLit advocates 'Buy Local, Read Our World'. The annual movement is back with a bang for its fourth year running where attendees can go beyond just reading – hear, see, touch and even taste the world of Singapore literature!

Participants both young and old are invited to embark on a journey around Singapore, traversing familiar heartlands to the iconic Jewel Changi Airport, and even the revamped, historic Pasir Panjang Power Station. These locations set the stage for multi-sensory activities such as gem biscuit-making, music performances, writing workshops and dramatic readings, that will unlock new perspectives on local literature.
