Shakespeare in the Park

That is a stage shaped like a book built for the Shakespearean play, The Tempest, in Fort Canning Park with part of the Singapore skyline as its backdrop.

I think this is might be lavish even by the standards of the art stages of the world. I would not have imagined that this would appear here. Singapore has always been a prude in spending but I am glad she is finally extending her purse strings to include the arts.

I am still trying to reconcile what my eyes are telling me and the stubborn mind that refuses to believe. Given time, the eyes will win.
