reviews:

“⭐⭐⭐⭐ — Rebecca will definitely be a name that I'll look out for in the future… 00:00 is a stunning and vital show.”

“Engaging, thought-provoking and transparent are some of the adjectives that come to mind thinking back on the brilliant performance. A massive congratulations goes out to the director and creator of the play, Rebecca Goh, who devised this marvellous script… I believe the audience left the room with a newfound perspective on the social issues discussed.”

“The maturity and power in your storytelling is a bit of magic I hope you can retain and hone and keep pushing.”

“It was a liberating experience for me. You have created a highly collaborative space where I feel safe yet challenged to explore my artistic and personal boundaries. It opened a new way of devising work with many elements such as space, sound (and the thought of) and bodies in space. It was a great opportunity to push my mindset and limits as a new artist!”

“I loved the setting and the concept (of parthenogenesis:). The museum form was interesting… it (subverted) the conventions of performance, and turn scrutiny into those who scrutinise. The visuals are so stunning and embodied the text perfectly.”

“(Death at the Desktop) was phenomenal. Heart-wrenching, emotive, and the camera angles were inspired. You really pushed the boundaries of what I thought online performance can / could be.”

“I very much enjoyed (The Optic Trilogy), it was thoughtful, beautifully designed... The use of physical theatre added thoughtfully to the symbolism of the play… I felt this was an excellent production, with a real vision and aesthetic. You have clearly developed a strong ensemble commitment between your cast members.”

“Director Rebecca Goh mirrors Pascal’s writing, laden with metaphor and imagery, with a kinetic quality, pitting (characters) as both wrestling rivals and uneasy friends. The blurring between reality and fantasy leads up to an emotional finale that helps this piece become the standout play of the evening.”
