Jeraldine Phneah, wishing all readers a Happy Lunar New Year!

Hope you enjoy the insights from her in this interview!

Q1. Is there a reason why you keep yourself filled with activities?

I have always believed since young that holistic development was important. We enter education to grow as a person, not become a unit of labour in society. I was also partly inspired by my father who always invested in my interests outside school and encouraged me to develop a passion for other things beyond the classroom.

When I was young, I felt frustrated with our Singapore education system and wanted more than academic development. So, in my spare time, I spent it on other interesting activities which can equip me with new skills and engaged in new activities outside school. I believe these different life experiences made me a more mature, street wise and “whole” person.

When I am older, I would like to look back and feel satisfied that I had made the most of my youth.

Athena Foo, Theatre Studies Undergraduate at the National University of Singapore

This time, we have with us Athena Foo, who’s currently doing her internship with a theatrical company by the name of, ‘Cake Theatrical Productions’.

Athena Foo, NUS Theatre Studies Undergraduate

[InternSG]
It has always been InternSG’s interest to interview a student who’s involved in the arts scene, especially when it’s an internship with a theatrical company. Tell us more about yourself.

[Athena]
I’m currently a third year Theatre Studies undergraduate at the National University of Singapore, NUS. I’ve always been involved in the performing arts, particularly dance, since I was a kid, so it kind of led to a natural interest in the arts industry. I guess I can say that by the time I was in my teens, I kind of knew I wouldn’t be taking the “science and mathematics” route like many of my peers, and pursued the arts and humanities track from junior college onwards.

Back in secondary school, my English tutor told me about the Theatre Studies program in NUS, so when I got into NUS, I took the exposure module in my first semester and decided to major in it. In the midst of getting to know my fellow Theatre Studies course mates, I realized that my knowledge and experience of the theatre industry was limited only to dance and school performances. Some of them were already dabbling in professional projects outside of school and that really drove home the point that I needed to start putting myself out there as well.

[InternSG]
Tell us more about the Art scene in Singapore.

[Athena]
There are definitely more people supporting the local arts scene as compared to a couple of years back. Singaporeans are generally becoming more open and receptive to the arts, and the notion that the arts is something that is “too atas” is fading. There are also more people getting involved in the arts scene, whether through volunteering or understanding what the local arts scene is doing, where they are going. You get people from all walks of life wanting to be immersed in the arts in one way or another, not just people who are already doing something creative/art related.
