Singapore Arts Festival 2011 had the theme of “I Want to
Remember”. Unfortunately for me, I did not have the chance to attend the
previous Arts Festival; therefore I do not have the first-hand experience of
how different it was from this year’s Singapore Arts Festival. Hence, my
comparison analysis would only be a superficial view from the research done.
Singapore Arts Festival 2011 and 2012 were both held at
Esplanade Park, even though the performance stage was set up in a different
manner. SAF 2011 had an outdoor theatre as the main stage, which was built from
scratch, while SAF 2012 made use of the sand pit area as a stage by having
containers as a backdrop for screenings of videos.
Of course, the performances and theatrical acts are
vastly different, other than the Kid’s Arts Village remaining a regular
programme in the event, even though the activities were different,
Even with the changes from the previous year, the main objective of the
festival has remained constant, with the goal of bring arts and people together
as a whole and developing as well as showcasing the local arts of Singapore.
