Waterloo Street Stories is a collaborative project by the #WaterlooStKakis for Singapore Night Festival 2023, to spotlight the dynamic and textured stories that make this street unique. At the heart of Waterloo Street Stories is a rich narrative of one of the main thoroughfares of the Bras Basah Bugis district, illustrated through movement, audio plays, music and photographs that responds to the oral histories of different Waterloo Street personalities.
Stretching from Rochor Road to Bras Basah Road, Waterloo Street is home to a diverse mix of communities, as well as religious, arts, food, and lifestyle organisations. This mix includes Centre 42, Objectifs, P7:1SMA, SMU-ACM (Arts and Culture Management Programme at Singapore Management University,) and The Theatre Practice, who each have been building their own artistic and educational communities on this street.
Outdoor installation of photo stories by emerging photographers Marc Chu, Muhammad Zulfadhli, Pek Yan Lin, and Sarah Tan. Also features an indoor showcase of a visual timeline map of the
street, memories collected from Waterloo Street communities and an open call that invites the public to reimagine the future of the street.
Venue: 155 Middle Road (Objectifs)
When: 10 - 27 Aug 2023,
