9/10 stars for The Nutcracker. As amazing as it was, there was no interval break per se but overall I think it was an amazing ensemble from start to finish. The multi-sensory experience was overwhelming and blended with the story and antics well. The energy level was always high, and kept audience at the edge of our seats (not just because I sat at the balcony). Though it maintained that it was a music and dance event, the updated version with the magical illusions further reinforced its effect, giving a positive vibe. I think that there's indeed a lot that can be done with this performance space and involve all members of the audience to make it a more intimate experience.

I think it's strategic to have this theatre and performance in the heartlands and bring back the vibrancy of yesteryear to Bukit Merah. Loved what was put up, can't wait to see more in the months and years ahead. It is the place to be for the arts in Singapore. Elliott Soh reviewed Gateway Theatre – 5 star on Facebook
