Playful and surreal,Sublime Monsters and Virtual Children is a contemporary performance that combines film, theatre and performance art.

Brian has collaborated with TheatreWorks in a number of productions and he was one of 72-13 Creatives-in-Residence.
Presenting Sublime Monsters and Virtual Children is part of TheatreWorks’ intention to present innovative and engaging artists that will offer to the Singapore audience alternative viewpoints and perspectives to mainstream contemporary performance.
