What To Do This Weekend (9 to 11 Aug 2024)

Ready for the weekend? Here's what you can look forward to this week.

1. Don't Call Him Mr Mari Kita

Following a critically acclaimed sold-out run in 2022, Wild Rice's Don't Call Him Mr Mari Kita returns to The Ngee Ann Kongsi Theatre for a strictly limited final season.

Zubir Said made history with his music. In 1958, he composed Majulah Singapura – the iconic song that has galvanised our nation, and is still sung all over the island to this very day. But there is so much more to Zubir Said's remarkable career than the song that has come to define it.

In this joyful, moving and inspiring celebration of Zubir Said's life and legacy, Julian Wong – one of Singapore's most acclaimed music directors – pays loving tribute to his teacher's teacher.

Accompanied by some of our country's most accomplished musicians and young vocalists, Julian will bring you the best of Zubir Said's songbook – from beloved classics like Semoga Bahagia, Sayang Disayang and Orang Singapura, to rare musical gems long thought to have been lost forever.
