The premiere of Bedok Reservoir was performed at the Goodman Arts Centre on the 1st to the 3rd of November 2012. Inspired by the several consecutive drownings in Bedok Reservoir last year, the play revolves around three divers going in search of a missing mother and son in Bedok Reservoir. Upon finding the mother, the divers begin a greater search for the horrific truth that led to her death. It’s a story about loss, searching and acceptance of one’s own demons.

Bedok Reservoir, written by Wesley Leon Aroozoo has also been adapted to prose and published by Math Paper Press.
