I realised I watched a shitload of stage productions last year, mostly with You-Know-Who, the others with the Y&W or R&H people.
This is what I remember watching, in approximate chronological order, with my personal * rating (0 to 5):
1. Army Daze (Toy Factory) **1/2
2. West Side Story (The Broadway Asia Company, USA) ****
3. The Magic Fundoshi (W!ld Rice) ****
4. Objects of Desire (The Theatre Practice) ***1/2
5. The Glass Menagerie (I Theatre) ***
6. Theatre Training & Research Programme Final Theatre-Making Project Showing ** (but ***** for Sankar's spectacular piece)
7. Five Foot Broadway - VVVV ***, City of the Gods * (Musical Theatre Society)
8. The Dresser (SRT) *****
9. First Family (The Finger Players) **
10. 41 Hours & The Car (Action Theatre) ****
11. Cabaret (Toy Factory) **
12. Homesick (W!ld Rice) ****
13. The Campaign to Confer the Public Service Star on JBJ (W!ld Rice) ***1/2
14. National Language Class/Utama: Every Name in History is I (W!ld Rice coll. w. Spell #7) ***

28. Jack & the Beansprout (W!ld Rice) *** (plus 1 more * for quirk value)
There were a couple more outdoor/free concerts. I remember one on The Arts House lawn (where I first laid eyes on the wonderful Ah Hock & Peng Yu) and another big event at The Esplanade waterfront. Can't remember if there was anything else.
