Hi all,


Just found out that you need to collect show passes at the venue half an hr before the showtime. So go early.

Thanks for the info. I think there's an ad in the Straits Times Life section today on this. Must go early for the tickets then.

Hi mummy of 2,

Have you gone for the Jungle Book and Green Sheep??

How did you find them??

I thought the first was really enjoyable. I especially like the gal who played the role of Ka, the snake. Her grin was .... so 'snaky'. But I did find the ending a bit abrupt though ..... Thank God my DS sat thru the performance. It helped that there was a 15 mins break. So now I can bring him to plays that last a little longer.

As for Green Sheep, though son enjoyed play and wanted me to purchase the book, I don't know if I want to do this again - wait for 45 mins in the queue, given passes, told to come back 10 mins b4 and then queue again to be let in. I mean, there were onlookers standing at the side who got better views of what was going on as those with passes had to sit down and constantly crane our necks as the performers were moving abt so much .... The plus point is that aft the performance, kids get to interact with the performers.

I might just 'gate crash' these performances nxt time. :lol:

BTW, are you going for Bear and Chicken go to school nxt year???

Hi autumnbronze


I watched the Jungle Book last week. Personally, I preferred the other plays by the Little Compnay, such as the Boy who Cried Wolf, and Bear and Chicken Go Camping. Guess i like humour in my plays. There wasn't much singing comapred to other plays too. Agrred with you that the \"snake\" was good. She's also very graceful in her movements.

As for the Green Sheep I'm likely to go during weekend, as things are so hectic at work I can't take leave at all. Especially since i just took leave recently for a trip to Phuket. From your experience, I guess I will gate-crash. Bound to be long q for weekend show. I actually borrowed the book from lib. Maybe u can borrow it first and see if your son really wants to raed it over and over again

I have already bought tickets to Bear and Chicken Get Ready for Schhol. Next play I'm watching will be the\"Farmer, Fox, Bird and the Cookie\" later this month. Can't wait.

Hi mummy of 2,

Yup, I would highly recommend that you 'gate crash' the performance.

Am contemplating to buy tickets 4 the 'Chicken and Bear get ready for sch' performance.

Will be watching Farmer, Fox, bird and Cookie too. Maybe we exchange reviews then.

Enjoy ....

hi mummyloves


Already bought tickets for Bear and Chicken Get Ready for School some time back. Hope you can collate enough orders to enjoy the discount. If not, can use ticket stubs for "The Jungle Book" to get 15% discount, i think.

Hi blueblue,

According to pamphlet, recommended age is from 3 to 6 yrs old. They do allow kids younger to attend, its just that you have to buy the ticket.

Just to share - I started bringing my DS to plays from age 1. Now at 2+ yrs old, he can sit thru plays meant for such an age grp.

Hope this helps.
