In celebration of Toy Factory Productions Ltd’s 20th Anniversary in 2010, we are proud to bring you the deeply missed Mandarin Musical DECEMBER RAINS.
In 1996, DECEMBER RAINS was the first Mandarin Musical written in Singapore ever. This labour of love was created by pivotal figure of Singapore Mandarin Pop - Liang Wern Fook , Singer and Composer Jimmy Ye, theatre director Alec Tok and celebrated producer James Toh.
Come August 2010, a brand new staging of this beloved musical will storm the Esplanade Theatre. Helmed by multiple award-winning Director Goh Boon Teck, the 2010 revival of December Rains will be a visual, emotional and musical wonder. Singapore’s international singing sensation Kit Chan, will lead the 20-member cast along with Broadway Star George Chan and Singapore-Hong Kong theatre luminary Jeffrey Low. With Elaine Chan as Musical Director, this musical will wet your eyes and melt your heart. DECEMBER RAINS, a dream production is coming true for you this August 2010 at the Esplanade.
The Story of December Rains:
1950s Singapore: the innocent relationship of a pair of young lovers is sabotaged by strikes organized by Chinese high school students, a marriage of convenience, strong parental disapproval; and a third party waiting desperately in vain for his unrequited love.
1980s Singapore: past grievances and mistakes continue to haunt the younger generation. Only a personal sacrifice and the revelation of an undelivered love letter holds the promise of resolution.
However, no one knows when the rain will cease in December.
