SINGAPORE - Tech takes the stage at the Singapore International Festival of Arts (Sifa) this year. Theatre that is part virtual reality and part live performance, free dance-offs against your own recorded self, and Oscar-winning composer Ryuichi Sakamoto improvising a musical duet to moving images were among the headline acts announced on Monday (Feb 25) at The Arts House.
The annual event returns from May 16 to June 2 and is helmed by festival director Gaurav Kripalani (whose three-year term began last year). Sifa is presented by not-for-profit organisation Arts House Limited (AHL)and commissioned by the National Arts Council.
