Goldilocks and the 3 Bears, Singapore Repertory Theatre

A modern take on the fairy tale, with the issue of conservation kicking in.  The production features music and lyrics by West-End musical theatre song writing duo George Stiles and Anthony Drewe. 

It was good house for the performance.  The songs were catchy and the set design was beautiful.  On that day, the actors' energy level was not high and they could have engaged the audience better. At times, the 3 bears look more like brothers and sister rather than parents and little bear, and Goldilocks and her father looked like a pair of lovers.  Having said that, the production still flows smoothly and the message of conservation was delivered clearly to the young generation.  Still a worthwhile trip to this production.
