Virtual Events With Esplanade Offstage In Singapore
Exciting Arts Line-Up Right At Your Doorstep
2020 May 01
Esplanade Offstage is your free all-access backstage pass to an array of performing arts line-up online! As we are still into the present reality of social distancing and self-isolation, Arts groups in Singapore and abroad have come up with creative ways to cope. Pivoting away from live performances, we’ve listed some of the online concerts and performances available on this portal.
The Necessary Stage
Enjoy free access to a play from The Necessary Stage’s vast archives every month, beginning with the evocative medical drama Good People, followed by all-time-favorite, ‘Those Who Can’t, Teach’. In the spirit of democracy, you can also vote for the next TNS production that you want to watch here.
