Snow White & The Seven Dwarfs By Wild Rice

WILD RICE ANNOUNCES ANNUAL PANTOMIME TO CLOSE 2023 ON A HIGH NOTE

The Perfect Musical Comedy For The Whole Family

Wild Rice continues its annual holiday tradition of entertaining the entire family with Alfian Sa’at’s SNOW WHITE & THE SEVEN DWARFS, a hilarious, heartwarming musical comedy that puts a joyously Singaporean spin on one of the world’s most beloved fairy tales.

This reimagined production will be directed by Hossan Leong, with a brand-new cast led by Chua Enlai as the Queen, Nadya Zaheer as Snow White, and Siti Khalijah Zainal as the Magic Mirror.

First staged in 2008, this riotously funny musical marked the first time Alfian tried his hand at writing a Wild Rice pantomime – which meant that he had to create a show that would play as satisfactorily for children and adults.

“I’m excited to see how children will respond to the familiar story of Snow White – now that it comes with new layers, where it deals with themes such as the pursuit of perfection and how this affects one’s self-image and self-esteem,” says Alfian.

“While Snow White is the protagonist, I think many will identify with the dwarves – as misfits who have been banished – because they do not conform to certain norms. I hope that the audience will leave the show feeling hopeful that difference is not something to be afraid of, but something that we can acknowledge and celebrate.”

Not so far away, in the Eternal Kingdom, lives a Queen who wants everything and everyone to be perfect – just not as perfect as her. So, when her subjects turn 18, they are sent for “Enhancement” – a programme to correct their flaws.

One day, her Magic Mirror, who cannot lie without literally cracking up, reveals to her that a new beauty has come of age – her own step-daughter, Snow White. Seething with jealousy, the Queen orders the girl to undergo a nip-tuck by the creepy Royal Surgeon.

To save her own skin, Snow White runs away to the Outer Limits, where she meets and befriends a host of misfits and outcasts – including the rapping, breakdancing Seven Dwarfs, who have been banished from the Kingdom for falling short of the Queen’s impossibly high standards.

Will the Queen’s relentless pursuit of perfection ever end? Will Prince Charming find his true love amongst the piles of trash in the Outer Limits? And can Snow White find a way to keep it real while saving herself, her friends and the Kingdom from the Queen’s diabolical control?
