Calling all brave children to come forth and be part of this heroic adventure to chase away the ferocious Nian!
Legend has it that every Chinese New Year, a beast named Nian appears and creates trouble on earth. There is a way to defeat it, yet the powerful monster strikes fear in everyone’s hearts. Who will be courageous enough to help?
The brainchild of Singapore theatre director Danny Yeo, in collaboration with 3 Pumpkins Projects, Child’s Play is a fun and unique experiential programme specially for kids aged between 7–10 (only children are small enough to escape the watchful eyes of Nian!).
Learn the origins of Chinese New Year, participate in craft workshops, and be part of an interactive storytelling performance!
