Once on This Island is a coming-of-age one-act stage musical with a book and lyrics by Lynn Ahrens and music by Stephen Flaherty. It tells the story of a peasant girl in the French Antilles who falls in love with a rich boy and makes a deal with the gods to save his life.
By Edmond Rostand
Freely adapted by Martin Crimp
Directed by Edith Podesta
In Martin Crimp's reimagining of Cyrano de Bergerac, Cyrano seduces in raps and rhymes, using his linguistic brilliance to help another man win the heart of his one true love, championing – above all – his own unbridled love for words.

The acting bug bit LASALLE's BA (Hons) Acting student Fahim Murshed early in life. Just eight-years-old then, he had stared down at the audience in his primary school’s hall, clad in fuzzy ears as a Mouse in a school play, and felt an incredible rush. “I think I spent my entire childhood searching for that same feeling in everything I did,” Fahim admits candidly. But accompanying this burst of creative passion was a lingering sense of insecurity and restlessness – what did it take to become a professional performer?
In this article on the post-pandemic boom in musical theatre, Dayal Singh, Programme Leader, BA (Hons) Musical Theatre at LASALLE, shares that Singapore is seeing a wider variety of performances taking place, attracting a greater diversity of audiences.
Behind a professional stage production is a team of professionals who work behind the scenes to bring a creative vision to life.
