The first
of its kind in Singapore,
The Glowers Drama Group is a drama company that conducts on
drama-related activities that cater for the seniors and producing
performances by the seniors for organisations.
Established
in 2003 under DramaPlus Arts, The Glowers was formed with
the aim of engaging the seniors, especially the retired, through
the fun of drama. In January 2008, The Glowers became the
voluntary drama wing of the Centre For Seniors.
Over the years, The Glowers has
grown steadily, and it has been called by many agencies to
stage shows about the seniors by the seniors for the seniors.
In mid-2008, The Glowers Drama
Group became an independent drama company led by theatre-television
veteran, Catherine
Sng, who conducts workshops and acting classes.
While the primary mission of serving and engaging the seniors
remains, the company offers more. Now, The Glowers, comprised
of a group of dynamic seniors, forms part of the company.
Our activities and shows may be conducted or presented in
English, Mandarin and Chinese dialects. As of December 2008,
the company has about 50 members, aged between 50 and 85.
Currently, The Glowers Drama
Group focuses on offering acting classes to the seniors, running
a "workout" workshop based on Keith Johnstone's TheatreSports™,
and staging performances for social and commercial events.

The Glowers Drama Group continues
to reach out to more seniors in Singapore and provide them
with an avenue to enjoy a period of glowing golden years.
This is a wonderful platform for the seniors to stay mentally
and physically active, showcase their talents, make more friends
and expand their social network, and perhaps even fulfil their
lifelong dreams.
