WHERE YOUNG VOICES MEET REAL-WORLD CHANGE

re:ACT Festival

re:ACT Festival empowers students to create Forum Theatre performances on real-world issues through intergenerational, multi-national values-driven collaboration.

re:ACT is Singapore’s first youth applied theatre festival — a platform where students don’t just perform, they respond. Through devised Forum Theatre, youth collaborate with seniors and community groups to stage powerful stories that address real-life social issues.

Each year, re:ACT brings together schools, families, and partner agencies in a shared creative journey. Students explore themes like ageing, inclusivity or mental health — and reimagine what it means to care, to question, to act.

This is more than a performance.

It’s Values-in-Action in motion.
It’s drama with purpose.
It’s your students taking centre stage in building a kinder, more connected world.

Mission

To empower young people to become empathetic changemakers through applied theatre — using storytelling, intergenerational dialogue, and Forum Theatre to address real-world social issues and inspire meaningful community action.

Vision

To build a future where theatre is not just art, but a catalyst for empathy, inclusion, and civic engagement — connecting generations, bridging communities, and empowering students to lead social change through the power of story.
