Resorts World Sentosa in Singapore, has unveiled
its resident show - Voyage de la Vie - as well as an international
cast led by a debutant Singaporean lead in Singapore’s first
international circus production.
Voyage de la Vie, premieres at
the resort’s 1,600-seat purpose-built Festive Grand showroom on 17
June 2010 and will make history as one of Singapore’s first
multi-million dollar original theater productions.
RWS promises the fast-paced, colorful, stunt-a-minute show
will be filled with breathtaking circus acts, feats of agility
and stunning sets and costumes, performed by an ensemble of over
40 international cast members.
Singaporean singer and songwriter, Jonathan Leong
takes centerstage as the lead protagonist, Boy. He joins highly
acclaimed international circus stars Viktor Kee - recognized as
one of the best jugglers in the world - French trapeze
contortionist Aurelia Cats and handstand artist Melanie Chy, as
well as crossbow artist Martii Peltonen, the beautiful Finnish
rope aerialist Linna Aunola, 15-year old prodigy contortionist Alexey Goloborodko, and the famous Las Vegas duo with their
innovative illusions and magic acts, Jarrett & Raja, to
complete the stellar cast list.
Ms Andrea Teo, Vice President
of Entertainment at RWS and Executive Producer, Voyage de la Vie,
said, “This is the first contemporary theatrical circus
spectacular to originate in Singapore. Unprecedented in scale
and magnitude, we had to scout the globe to find the right performers with circus skills - those with the best fit for the
various challenging roles especially since Singapore has no
prior experience or talent in the theatrical circus field. Right
from conceptualisation, we sought to identify and groom local
talent for a world-class production that will be seen by an
international audience.’’
Voyage de la Vie tells the story of a boy’s metaphoric journey as
he searches for his identity along his journey to adulthood.
Led by the mysterious Lantern Keeper and the mischievous Game
Master, the Boy meets unusual characters who extrapolate symbols
of his inner struggles: love, temptation, conflict and
resolution, life and death. The show’s stunning climax occurs
in the scene when the boy gets his epiphany: that the journey, not
the destination, had been his quest.
Jonathan, the 2006
Singapore Idol first runner-up, has performed at numerous
high-profile events. He said, “This is a dream come true for me, to be able to share the stage with some of the best global
talents in circus and theater production. It’s a world-class
production, a world stage, and I hope that Singaporeans will be
proud that we are bringing this to Singapore and come and support
the show. I will give it my all.’’
