Title: | Mandala |
Synopsis: | Production Information Mandala is a physical theatre production originally created by Beverly Yuen in 2007. After tours in Korea and Europe and several workshops, it was reimagined in a new production by Jacklyn Kuah in her new capacity as Artistic Director of In Source Theatre. Subtitled “Journey through a voyage of reflection on urban life as the Mandala develops”. With performances by Eng Kai Er, Sirfan S Sulaimi, Sonia Kwek, Shana Yap and Bernice Lee Yixun, under the direction of Jacklyn Kuah and co-director/vocal accompanist, Beverly Yuen, the work developed with choreographic advise from Bernice Lee Yixun. It featured original compositions by musician and sound designer, Chong Li-Chuan, lighting by Hay Teow Kwang and costume designs by Yvette Ng. ‘Mandala’, from the Sanskrit word for ‘circle’, is a spiritual and ritual symbol in Hinduism and Buddhism, representing the Universe. In various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be used as a spiritual guidance tool, for establishing a sacred space, and as an aid to meditation and trance induction. Founded in September 2001, ln Source Theatre aims to develop and put in practice aesthetic principles and philosophy of humanism through physical theatre. The company believes in the full involvement of the actors in order to construct theatre as an interlude during which both performers and guests can strive for spiritual refreshment – whilst also raising aesthetic appreciation to higher levels.

At one point, they seek silence within and begin to reflect. They go through a contemplation process and decide to treat life differently and live life anew.
