Bakchormeeboy

Bakchormeeboy was started in 2016 when we noticed an increasing lack of media coverage on the arts scene as old websites began shutting down one after the other and eminent reviewers left their posts. As such, Bakchormeeboy began as a platform to fill that gap in arts writing in Singapore, providing in-depth previews and reviews of theatre shows, with a special place in our hearts for young, upcoming talents and companies who might otherwise not receive as much opportunity on mainstream media. We seek to bring the arts closer to the audience with our website and writing, and to be the first point of reference for any upcoming theatre performance and news in Singapore. Since then we’ve rapidly expanded, and now provide coverage for all the major theatre companies in Singapore, including Singapore Repertory Theatre, W!ld Rice, The Necessary Stage and The Theatre Practice, as well as newer groups such as The Second Breakfast Company. Besides our main forte in covering the theatre scene in Singapore, we also review dance, visual arts, film, opera, and entire festivals. We’ve even headed overseas to provide coverage of events in places as far flung as London’s West End and Malaysia.
