Last Thursday, I just watched Edges – The Musical, directed by Derrick Chew and produced by Sight Lines Productions:
Edges is a contemporary musical about coming of age, hopes and dreams, love and yes, addiction to Facebook when it first started.
The musical follows a song-cycle concept that is new to the Singapore theatre scene. Edges is an original New York production by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul and it features the famous song, Be My Friend, that has come to be commonly known as the ‘Facebook song’. It has been staged more than 100 times in North America, Asia, Australia, Europe and Africa.
Being a social media addict, I had to watch it just to hear the cast sing the ‘Facebook song’:
Interesting?
The songs will resonate well with those born in the 80s and 90s as they tend to cover themes and growing up anguishes around that time period.
If you like musical and am interested to catch Edges, it is showing at Drama Centre Blackbox at the National Library Building from 3 – 19 April 2013. Tickets can be bought via Ticket Mash.
