In celebration of NAFA’s 80th birthday, the Academy is producing its first-ever operetta, “Die Fledermaus : The Revenge of the Bat”. This operetta is composed by Johann Strauss II to a German libretto by Karl Haffner and Richard Genée, but will be presented by NAFA with a local twist. Set in contemporary Singapore, this operetta will be sung in German with speaking parts in English, Chinese and a smattering of Singlish.
This production is a multi-disciplinary collaboration, where students and alumni members from all of NAFA’s eight disciplines across three schools will be involved. School of Music will be the main player with maestro Lim Yau leading the orchestra; School of Arts Management, Dance & Theatre will be showcasing their talents, and School of Arts & Design will be applying their artistic talents in designing of the publicity collaterals, stages and costumes. Last but not least, children from NAFA’s School of Young Talents, Junior Drama Department will also be appearing in one of the scenes in the production.
Working alongside with NAFA faculty, students and alumni are experienced professionals in the performing arts scene, who will be helping in the areas of production management, stage management, light designing, répétiteur and surtitling. The production will be directed by Mr David Edwards, who works internationally as a stage director, writer and presenter collaborating with Opera Companies, Symphony Orchestras, Universities and Young Artists’ Training Programmes in the UK, USA, Europe, Japan and Singapore.
It will be a truly NAFA production.
