Ever since our successful outing to watch a performance in Mandarin last year, I’ve been on the lookout for other Mandarin shows, especially those with familiar story lines. The upcoming production of Goldilocks and the Three Bears by the Singapore Repertory Theatre’s The Little Company (TLC) fits the bill. TLC is lauching its 2015 season with a Mandarin version of Goldilocks and the Three Bears which was first staged in English in 2013 to sell-out houses.
Like the English version, the Mandarin production will feature music and lyrics by the Laurence Olivier award-winning West-End musical theatre songwriting duo George Stiles and Anthony Drewe. We watched the English version and I remember the boys liking the porridge song very much, so I’m really looking forward to hearing that sung in Mandarin.
This is a classic story that teaches young children not to fiddle with the belongings of others, lest there be consequences to bear. If you loved the English version, don’t miss the chance to join the cast as they bring your child on an exciting Mandarin journey!

my bed slept in – it’s so personal!
bed slept in would upset me the most! I don’t want to sleep in an unmade bed and I dislike the thought of someone hugging my bolster.
Hi Hi, I want to participate!
the thing that will upset me the most – someone slept/sat on my bed without changing out of the dirty clothes!!!!!
Returning home to find my favourite chair broken would upset me most!
Bed slept in. It’s MY bed!!!!

Bed slept in is the worst of all. It is my space .
Bucking the trend here – it is by far, my porridge. Perhaps it has to do with fighting off a large sized sibling my entire childhood!
Chair broken! Because you can make you bed and a new batch of porridge…
My bed to be slept on as it is my personal space ;)
Porridge eaten!! Hungry!!!! Angry!!! Ahhh!
