Do you recall those bloopers, back-of-house scenes on DVDs?
Those scenes were precious. Called 'Uncut', they offered peeks of fun or unexpected sights of how some blockbuster films were made.
On this walking tour, we take you behind the scenes, where there are no rose-tinted lenses, we share Singapore as it is. At least of whatever that is left.
Along Jalan Besar or ‘Big Road’ (in English), just minutes away from Marina Bay, is a network of side streets of exceptional convenience for vices to thrive. Here, we head off into back-alleys to view the Uncut version of this super city-state.
Juxtaposed against the 'traditional trades', this is also a destination for the cool, the fancy, the hip, and in no time at all the new will soon envelope its intangible cultural edges. A step too late and there’ll be no bling to peel, no hints of the industries that shun the limelight, those pages to turn and expose its underbelly goes crusty.
We’re still ahead of time, but barely. Join us, put on this blockbuster DVD and enjoy the "show" we have curated for you.
Personal water bottle (our tap water everywhere is super safe), comfy walking wear and shoes and an umbrella.
(only for 'Vanishing Craftsmen' please bring along a house/office key for an activity)
Looking ahead a day before us meeting, we will update everyone, usually on Whatsapp, of any possible changes or updates. Please look out our messages.
For light rains during or before, the Experience continues unabated. In the event of a potential thunderous shower, we will take a decision 2 hours before our meeting time, the Experience may then be postponed or continued.
Should said shower occur during the tour, we will take a decision then and there. For all postponements, please discuss with us separately.
However, should the weather turn sour while we are deep into the Experience, the host will provide an alternative plan to ensure everyone’s safety first, and carry on as per normal.
Do DM us at +65 8021 0271 or drop us an email, and we will do our best to make alternative plans/suggestions for you.
Yes, you are not obliged to stay throughout. For whatever reason you need to leave before the end, please inform us so we don't panic and call the police, which is what a panicked us would do ; p
