APA Meeting 2013We had a great time at the 5th Meeting of the ASEAN Puppetry Association and Celebration of ASEAN Traditional Puppetry. Organised by the ASEAN Puppetry Association (APA), this fifth instalment was held at the Arts House at the Old Parliament in Singapore from 23 – 25 Jan 2013.

Frankie and team were privileged to present two performances of ‘Streets of Singapore’ to our ASEAN counterparts during this event. At the opening ceremony, the Guest-of-Honour was Dr. Makarim Wibisono, Executive Director of ASEAN Foundation. We were also the final performers for the Closing Ceremony, where Prof. Wiendu Nuryanti, Vice Minister for Culture and Education of the Republic of Indonesia was the Guest-of-Honour. All in all, it was also a great time to connect with friends and puppeteers from all over ASEAN.
