Theatre productions and plays are just one of the many things that have been cancelled for 2020 thanks to Covid-19. But this month, local theatre company Pangdemonium is bringing the theatre to you instead with its first online play, Waiting For The Host.

Starring local actors Mina Kaye, Neo Swee Lin, Petrina Kow, Adrian Pang, Gavin Yap, Keagan Kang, and Zachary Pang, the Zoom-inspired play was directed remotely by Tracie Pang, with the various actors all performing from their own homes.

The play will be streamed via Sistic Live starting from today, but be warned: Just like a regular play, tickets for each session are limited (350 per performance, to be exact).

Take a walk through the (extremely distant) past at Jurassic Mile, a gargantuan permanent outdoor display featuring 20 different life-sized dinosaurs, the tallest of which stands at nearly 5 metres high.

Launched on Oct 11, the 1km dinosaur-themed cycling and jogging path links Changi Airport to East Coast Park and the Park Connector Network - perfect for getting some fresh air with the kids while marvelling at the pre-historic creatures along the way.

Do note that while admission is free, booking is required on the weekends to ensure safe distancing.
