SAD: This Girl’s in Love With You

SUB AFTER DARK
13 Oct, 8–11PM
The Substation
$15 (Standard)
$25 (With 2 free drinks)
Tickets at thisgirlsinlove.peatix.com

We’re throwing a party in honour of the nation’s most famed icon, the Singapore Girl. Is she a problematic figure? Are her perfectly coiffed hair and cherry red lips still the paradigm of Asian hospitality, elegance, and beauty? Were they ever? We don’t know. But we’re celebrating her anyway.

From an alternative Balmain Army led by Becca d’Bus, to a slew of performers, to late-night confession sessions with ex-crew members; come to be draped in batik, sprinkled with glitter, and regaled by what it means to be a Singapore Body.

Featuring:
Becca d’Bus & the Not #BalmainArmy
Subhas
Preetipls & The Glamourettes
Ori Tahiti Singapore
Slowtalk ft. Isyraf & Mamat
Vanessa Victoria the Barmaid
Late night confessions with ex-crew members

Party styled and bedazzled by: Polina Korobova aka Glitter Queen

Hosted by: Preetipls

Part of Singapore Girl, or Heritage Deployed
The Substation’s 2018 programme season,
