| Editors Matthew Lyon, Reviews Editor and Web Designer Matthew was born in England, but was cast out of the country when it became clear he didn't like football and preferred coffee to tea. He now teaches Theatre Studies and Drama at Raffles Junior College, and helps out with Raffles Players. Matthew has acted, directed and written for the stage in Singapore. He lives in a glass house with broken windows. Kenneth Kwok, Listings Editor and General Administrator Kenneth was the founder and teacher-in-charge of the Anderson Secondary
School Drama Club during his time in the school as an English Language
and Literature teacher (2000 - 2004). He has also written for and acted
with various theatre companies in Singapore over the years. In 2007,
he completed his Ed.M in Arts in Education at Harvard which included
a course in critical writing about the arts. He is currently the Deputy
Headmaster at Raffles Institution but spends his spare time fighting
crime as an associate member of the Legion of Super Heroes. On a dark and stormy night, Malcolm decided to try his hand at ballet
before rheumatism set in, and signed up for lessons at a local school.

Writers Deanne believes in the three critiques: critique of self, critique
of others, and critique of art. On weekdays, she receives lots of critiques
about herself, which she never fails to critically evaluate. On weekends
and evenings, she expends her energies on critiques of art. Whenever
the opportunity arises, she will critique others. She has a degree in
English Literature and International Relations, which Yi-Sheng is a freelance writer of poetry, plays, reviews, news and corporate flash. He has published two books: last boy, a poetry collection, and SQ21: Singapore Queers in the 21st Century, a non-fiction book on GLB people on this dear island. He found a day job last year and then quit when he realised that it makes a lot more sense to be paid for what you produce than how much you suffer. He knows it's probably a bad idea to be a playwright as well as a reviewer, but knows that the theatre scene here needs more of both. His reviews also appear in The Straits Times, 'cos they do pay. He's also got a professional blog at http://lastboy.blogspot.com - commission him for stuff, he needs the money. Amos Toh
