The Pitch

2020 • Directed by

Ken Kwek

A short film that aims to entertain audiences even as it shines a light on the complex challenges facing arts companies in Singapore during the COVID-19 pandemic.

As the COVID-19 pandemic ravages theatres around the world, a motley trio of theatre companies – Pangdemonium, Singapore Repertory Theatre and WILD RICE – band together to create an urgent project that’s pitch-perfect for our times. But will their noble mission survive cash-flow problems, creative differences and clashing egos? Can they keep the drama off-stage? And do they know what the hell they are doing?
