Presented by Esplanade - Theatres on the Bay, PLAYtime! is an interactive theatre series designed especially for curious little ones aged 3 to 6.
Each production explores the world through a child's eyes, addressing their questions and concerns while sparking creativity and opening up meaningful conversations through the magic of performing arts.
This 2026 season celebrates the joy of play and imagination, bringing children and their grown-ups together through enchanting stories that inspire wonder and empathy.
Is a sarong just a piece of cloth? Not to Nora and Adi!
When their mother hands them her sarong, it transforms to become a sail one minute, a secret hideout the next, and a superhero cape after that. Wherever their imagination wants to go, the sarong goes with it.
This stage adaptation of "The Amazing Sarong" by Quek Hong Shin (Epigram Books) follows the siblings through a day filled with make-believe, laughter and small surprises. It's a warm reminder for families that the best adventures don’t need fancy toys, sometimes all it takes is a little imagination and something already lying around the house.
Beyond the onstage fun, the show gently nudges young audiences to notice and care for the feelings of those around them, planting the seeds of empathy and connection early on.
Together, children and their grown-ups can celebrate the joy of play and the strength of family bonds.
Bring your little ones along and let them discover how the most ordinary things in our homes can hold the most extraordinary and magical surprises!

Southeast Asia's largest indoor nature attraction just raised the bar for what "immersive" actually means.
Spread across 10,000 square metres, Exploria takes you through a multi-sensory adventure across 5 incredible worlds.
You’ll be navigating through high-altitude peaks, shrinking down to the size of a bee, or travelling back to the age of prehistoric giants (the ground really does shake!).
The highlight is The Giants Show, an 8-minute, 360-degree standing theatre that moves through 500 million years of Earth’s history. Spectacularly cinematic, we caught ourselves saying “woah” out loud numerous times during the show.
Exploria’s RFID wristband turns the whole visit into a personal adventure. Tap into interactive installations, play games, and collect badges as you move through each world.
A live scoreboard in the exit tunnel tracks how you did. And since your profile stays active for a full year, there's every reason to come back and top your score.
