sunday post

finally tried freeing, a game whereby you are trapped in a room, and you need to solve puzzles in order to escape from the room. 

not very cheap. 28 dollars per pax, for 45 minutes. i honestly rather go watch a movie, for example teenage mutant ninja turtles, and i pay $9.50 to watch it for 102 minutes. 

yesterday's perf at NAFA cost me 22 dollars for a ticket, and i watch it for 90 minutes. but having said that, i paid 37 USD to watch les miserables at new york city. i think it is a no-brainer to determine which one is more worth it. 

the point i am making is that, i am always very supportive of the local arts scene, and always very supportive of young talents, but it is just that the tickets are really a bit too expensive. i don't think the fault lies with the organisers. i think is because of the venue costs. and why venue costs so high? probably because they need a large amount of money to maintain the venue. and everything points back to the high standard of living in sg.
