SG60 Family Bundle Promotion! Promo code: MMSG60 (enter to unlock tickets) 2 General + 2 Concession @S$60 (U.P. S$90) _________________________________________________ Moving Mountain is a reflective performance blending live music, poetic storytelling, and sound meditation. A modern retelling of an ancient folktale, it follows a humble old man who begins digging a mountain, not to conquer it, but to change what is possible. Told through the eyes of a bird who witnesses generations come and go, this intimate experience honours the unseen resilience of our elders and the quiet strength passed through families. Rooted in the lived realities of Singapore’s early migrant communities, the performance draws parallels between myth and memory. Featuring the tender sounds of the ruan and healing vibrations of the singing bowls, the piece invites audiences to slow down, remember, and reconnect with the past, each other, and the stories we carry. 《移山》是一场融合现场音乐、诗意叙述与声音冥想的静心演出。故事取材自古老传说，一位老人开始移山，不为征服，而是为了改变可能的方向。透过一只代代传承故事的鸟儿，让观众感受到长辈们无声的坚韧与家庭中流转的力量。演出亦根植于新加坡早期移民群体的真实经历，在神话与记忆之间建立桥梁。阮与颂钵交织出的声音，唤起内在记忆，邀请我们放慢脚步，凝视过去，重拾彼此的连结。 Language: Conducted in English Note: We regret that venue is not wheelchair friendly. Parking is unavailable at 42 Waterloo Street. Limited parking can be found along the Waterloo Street Lazada One carpark and Waterloo Centre. _________________________________________________ Stand a chance to win a PRIVATE SOUND BATH Session Total of 3 lucky winners will stand to win a 1-hour one-on-one session (worth $110) and be treated to a personalised wellness experience dedicated for you!Exclusively for ticket holders.
