'On opening night, we also attended Between Heaven and Earth, where the four graduating students of the Intercultural Theatre Institute performed their final year individual projects at the Arts House Play Den. ... One is left certain that with the knowledge and skills gained over their training, these graduates will end the year off on a strong note as they end their season and formal education'

'ITI continues with its vision of trying to discover ways of allowing interculturality to exist on stage. The question that is often asked of us is, "In a world where we often try to suppress or iron out differences to create a veneer of sameness, how can we change to look at all our differences as something worthy of working with and of sharing?"'

'Created by final-year students of the Intercultural Theatre Institute from Singapore, Malaysia and India, these four original monodramas feature strong language and mature themes such as love, materialism, social justice, and the plight of the voiceless "Untouchables". These dramas conclude with a discussion led by ITI's director T. Sasitharan.'

'In September, each of the four students will be presenting brand new, original works conceived by them, as part of their Final Year Individual Project showcase. ... This September, watch as these graduates-to-be bare it all onstage and show the world what they’re capable of as they perform one of their last shows as students, in this highly personal and thought provoking series of original works.'

'When We Dead Awaken is by no means an easy watch, and its slow script is a challenging one for its cast to get just right. However, push past its initial difficulty and you’ll find a wealth of meaning lying within each movement and image on stage. With this production, [Sankar] Venkateswaran is certainly pushing the limits of excellence expected of ITI students, with the artistic risks paying off immensely in the moments they succeed and bringing out Ibsen’s themes in a whole new light.'

'In the first show of 2018 from the Intercultural Theatre Institute’s (ITI) latest graduating batch, the students will be presenting Ibsen’s final written work: When We Dead Awaken. Directed by Indian director Sankar Venkateswaran, artistic director of Theatre Roots & Wings and an ITI alumnus himself, When We Dead Awaken revolves around the polarising struggle between art and life.'
