This is an InHouse event 

Fireball is a mini contemporary dance festival with site-specific and cross-disciplinary elements.  The Substation Gallery will be transformed into a cafe framed by a moving, flowery tableau; along The Substation foyer, stairwells and rooms will be filled with box-like installations which invite audiences to literally pop their head into the artwork; within The Substation Theatre, dancers will move in water. All this and more, as dancers and startling images appear in and out of The Substation’s spaces for an interactive performance-installation showcase.

Brought together by ECNAD’s Artistic Co-director and Young Artist Award-recipient, Lim Chin Huat, together with selected artists, actors and performers, including Ruey Loon, Koh Wan Ching, Melissa Chiew, Lee Yong Wei, Bernice Lee, Sherry Tay, Esther Kong, Eileen Lee, Bryan Chen, Jerel Leong and Melissa Chua. Fireball 2011 is a celebration of ECNAD’s 15th anniversary for its significant contribution to Singapore’s contemporary dance scene.
