Finally after all the partying and hangovers we had over the long holidays - which just sickeningly passed, we’re back!
We went down to Geylang Road in “The Whole Earth Vegetarian Restaurant” where the cast of the new play “Be & Becoming” was practicing their lines and oh, all the drama. The play is presented by The Peranakan Association (Singapore).

More photos here.
Hear our friend Emeric Lau, the director of the play, as he talks more about what the play is all about! Also included is a little preview of the play read by Vanessa Wong!

Pelangi Pride Centre’s Event in January

Myths about same-sex domestic violence -
- “Domestic violence happens only in heterosexual relationships.”
- “Gay men cannot batter as there is no female to serve as victim and lesbians cannot be battered because there is no male to serve as perpetrator of the violence.”
- “The law can’t help me and the police aren’t interested.”
This month at Pelangi Pride Centre, join us for talk by Deeksha Vasundhra, Programme Manager, Helpline and Support Services at the Association of Women for Action & Research (AWARE), as we delve into the seldom talked about issue of abuse in same-sex relationships.
Topics Covered include:
- Unique aspects of same-sex domestic violence.
- ‘Outing’ as a method of control.
- What is emotional abuse and how does it happen in same-sex relationships?
- Why people stay in abusive relationships?
- How do you support a friend or a family member who is experiencing domestic violence?
- Where to seek help?
Never thought it could happen? Come and get the facts! The talk will be followed by a question-and-answer session.
Date: 13/01/2007 (Sat)
Time: Begins at 4:30pm
Venue: MOX Bar and Cafe,
21 Tanjong Pagar Road (4th floor)
Cost: $8.00 (includes handouts and 2 soft drinks + finger food)
To sign up, please email [pelangipridecentre at yahoo dot com] to RSVP with your name, contact number, the name/s of your guests.
