The Chronicles of Maria

Hello Everyone,

Yellow Chair Productions and Tampines Central CC YEC present 'The Chronicles of Maria,' a play that has been fully conceptualised and developed solely by youths who love theatre, with little professional help.

Maria, arrives in Singapore to study medicine at a university and later takes up a part-time job as a domestic helper, inspired by her best friend, Susie. Faced with having to balance school and work, Maria has to endure the circumstances of working for a rigid employer and finding time to fall in love with a fellow foreigner, Azlan.

Meanwhile, a mysterious hooded figure keeps appearing, warning Maria of her fate. Puzzled by the hooded figure's words, Maria accidentally stumbles upon a portal which transports her to the kingdom of Airam. There, she discovers that she is the Chosen One who is destined to stop the ruthless Queen Zahira from her rule.

Since 2005, Yellow Chair Productions has been encouraging and providing youths between the ages of 17-21 with a platform to showcase their talents and works. Following tradition, Yellow Chair Productions has increased the age group from 13-25 for 'The Chronicles of Maria'. Yellow Chair Productions has also been developing shows for the community and hope to work with schools. The team also intends to rope in more youths to be a part of a vibrant and passionate family of youths who love doing what they do.

I Like It

I like it,
When she traces her fingers on my palm,
When her finger touches mine,
When I allow her finger to travel up my arm.

I like it,
When she looks at me with her semi-hazel eyes,
When she gazes back when I gaze at her,
When she she looks beyond and doesn't notice me looking.

I like it,
When my fingers trace her lips,
When my fingers tickle her ears,
When my fingers feel the smoothness of her cheeks.

I like it,
When she says random things at the right times,
When tries to answer my calls in the morning,
When she wishes me goodnight.

I like it,
When she scrunches her nose wanting to act cute,
When she pouts trying to act cute,
When she blushes and actually looks cute.

I like it,
When I have lots more to say but I don't want to,
When you are wondering who I'm talking about,
When you ponder if all this is true.

I like it,
This feeling.

Object of My Affection

And there she walked under the moonless sky,
Her feet bare, naked to the cold.
Her head nestled onto my shoulder,
Her beating heart, a charming tool.

And now, she's become,
The object of my affection.
