SINGAPORE – Four Horse Road, the first casualty of the Covid-19 shutdown of live theatre in 2020, will return to Waterloo Street from Aug 4 to Sept 3.
The traumatic closure of the production after just two of 26 planned shows were staged might have cost The Theatre Practice (TTP) more than $650,000, but artistic director Kuo Jian Hong says of why TTP is reviving the work: “We are just stubborn people.”
