Accordingly, on the opening night this play was well received by the audiences, many cheered and laughed providing good remarks.
However on the 2nd night script writter Ovidia suddenly decideds to call-off the screening. According to organiser, Ovidia said "that was not what I wanted and this was the 1st time that I have watch it".
Can you imagine the script writer who was absent throughout the whole re-phrasal? She should have communicated her ideas well enough to the director to prevent this. What an embarrassing moment to the director and organizer.
I thought it was rather unfair to the actresses & actors and especially the director who had put in sleepless nights & effort practicing and rephrasing.
So many supporters/family members turned up empty handed.... they came but couldnt watch this play. anyway.. I have no chance to watch it too... and here's the info from the net:
“Dead Rites”

Singapore's new policy to ensure its MPs (Material Presences) are not outnumbered by NMPs (Non-Material Presences) comes as a shock to spirits queuing for Hungry Ghost Month visas... Will our undead citizens continue to haunt us--or uproot themselves to go where the afterlife is freer and easier?
