By The Way - Ace The School Hols!

If you’re wondering what to do with your children during the coming school holidays…looking for something that will really captivate them, keep them entertained and stimulate their imagination? It isn’t easy to find the right activities that will inspire and not bore the young ones, and at the right price too.
You’re in luck, with the ACE! Festival just round the corner. Get ready for a month of fun-filled arts performances for the young and young at heart. Featuring a range of local and regional performing groups across different genres, there will be theatre, dance, music, magic, storytelling and workshops for everyone to enjoy. From the folks at itheatre responsible for the popular, sold-out productions of Aesop’s Fabulous Fables and Little Green Frog earlier this year, the Ace! Festival promises to entertain, excite and enthrall.

Among the festival offerings are: How the Giraffe Got Its Neck by Tall STories Theatre Company, The Gingerbread Man by Brian Seward, Fairytalheart by itheatre, Moments by Maya Dance Theatre, Clever Monkey Sebung! and Metal Magic by Gamelan Asmarandana (Singapore’s first professional gamelan ensemble) and Waah Magic! by Kiki Tay Productions, just to name a few.
