Internationally acclaimed Papermoon Puppet Theatre collaborates with artists and designers from Singapore to perform their biggest production to date—Stream of Memory, an ecological tale of remembrance and reconnection at the Singtel Waterfront Theatre, Esplanade.

Created in response to the disappearing rivers consumed by urbanisation and modern life, this lyrical non-verbal production promises to rekindle our memories of nature and deepen our connections with each other.

Stream of Memory is a programme of In New Light – A Season of Commissions, in celebration of Esplanade’s 20th anniversary.

An Enchanting Journey Of Rediscovery

Follow the characters, Sang and Jun as they spend carefree days by their playground—the river. One day, an unexpected event takes Sang on a magical encounter with the majestic giant Kali. Meandering across the land, they discover who Kali is, and remember what he once was.

The performance uses puppetry, dance and music to bring families on an enchanting journey with Sang and Jun. Families can choose to enjoy the experience through standard theatre seating on chairs or through a more intimate performance with floor seating.
