5 Things to Do This Week In Singapore: 2nd to 8th November 2015

Welcome in November with wine and spirits as DFS brings you its 5th edition of MOWS, or catch Anthony Burgess’s A Clockwork Orange on stage for the first time in Singapore. Need to move it? Dance your night away to Darius’ infectious House music, and then again early next morning at the Movember Morning Rave, finally finishing up the weekend at an experiential market with food, retail, and music!

A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess

Banned for over 30 years, the all-male cast version of A Clockwork Orange makes its debut for the first time in Singapore. Directed by Alexandra Spencer-Jones, this testosterone-filled physical theatre ‘horror show’ exquisitely captures and transcends the spirit of Anthony Burgess’s original literary masterpiece, more than 50 years on from its publication. A Clockwork Orange is the story of the psychopath protagonist Alex DeLarge and his Droogs. Watch them get high at Korova Milkbar and embark on a spree of ultra-violence before going through the state prison and being caught in between the government and the opposition.

A Clockwork Orange is running from Wednesday, 4 November 2015 to Sunday, 8 November 2015 at the Esplanade Theatre. Tickets are priced from $68, and can be purchased at SISTIC. For more information, check out the ABA Productions Facebook page .

NoPartyHere x The Powder Room present Darius

Indulge in the sweet crime of dancing your night away to the infectious, slow-burning House music with emerging French artiste, Darius. The ‘Darius‘ touch – a distinctive blend of uplifting disco and funk dusted with underground intricacy – has led him to share stages with the likes of Ben Pearce, Yuksek and Cyril Hahn, peppering his remixes for Bondax, The Magician, MØ, Jessie Ware and Flight Facilities.

Darius will be at The Powder Room on Thursday, 5 November 2015, from 9pm till late. Admission is free. Text or call 8181 3305 for reservations. For enquiries, email [email protected]. For more information, check out the event Facebook page.
