A CLASSIC Singapore musical is being served up with a new twist, to commemorate the 50th year of grassroots organisation, the People's Association (PA).

Tickets will go on sale via Sistic on May 1, while holders of the PAssion card, a PA membership card, can book seats from April 1.

A commissioned production from the Singapore Repertory Theatre, where Lee is associate artistic director, the reworked show is set in the 1970s and promises 'elements of early Singapore nostalgia, racial harmony, friendship, neighbourliness, romance, and thrilling drama with several twists', according to a press statement from the PA.
Lee, 53, is also the artistic director of PA Talents, the cultural and musical arm of the grassroots organisation. The revamped musical will bring out Singapore's multicultural nature through sets and songs. Its star-studded cast includes radio host Denise Tan, singer Rahimah Rahim and actors Sebastian Tan and Lim Yu Beng.
The production will be directed by Steven Dexter, who has worked with Lee on other musicals including Forbidden City (2002), an English musical about the life of Chinese Empress Dowager Cixi.
