Choy Chee Yew

Choy Chee Yew is a Singaporean theatre performer, playwright, and arts manager who trained professionally at the Intercultural Theatre Institute. As a performer, he has been involved with youth theatre organisations such as Buds Youth Theatre and The Second Breakfast Company in Singapore. He also has extensive working experience in fundraising and marketing communications with The Theatre Practice, Singapore's longest-standing professional bilingual theatre institution. He aspires to continue creating original Singaporean works that speak for the voiceless and question cultural norms in society. He also intends to deepen his training, particularly in the fields of Biomechanics (Meyerhold), Suzuki Method of Acting, Viewpoints, and Lecoq.

He is also an emerging playwright who has won third prize twice (2022, 2023) for the 24-Hour Playwriting Competition by T:>Works. His original piece, Another Time With You, was selected by Centre 42's New Script Residency for a table read and further development.
