Gillian's friend and director, Jeremy Sing, has a film showing in an online film festival based in Japan. It is super 8mm film in the genre of a silent movie, but a little more quirky. There is a online system for voting and posting comments. So vote away! Thank you!
The title of his work is "The Girl in Red Sarong", and see if you can spot Gillian. View it on http://jp.con-can.com/watch/preview.php?id=20081118
She also recently hosted for UST and it was a fun experience. She'd like to thank Nicole for thinking of her and organising it so seamlessly! The rest of the team made it a blast. She hopes that the good people at UST had fun that Monday night and weren't having any hangovers the next day.
The last weekend for Gillian was a fun filled one working with friends. She was a nosy Nonya in the Peranakan Museum on May 10th and 11th, interacting with all the amused museum guests.
After her museum performance, she also did a little photoshoot which only lasted about an hour but the photographer, Bilal, managed hundreds of photos of the bubbly energetic punster in 3 outfits, including her traditional kebaya.
Keep a lookout for a possible photo gallery on this site. She will be glad to keep you informed by email. All you have to do is ask.
As a citizen of the large world we live in, Gillian was proud and honoured to be part of Three Men Productions' "Use", an empathetic and thought-provoking drama piece written by dear friends Hemang Yadav and Lee Gaoju. She burst into tears after the first rehearsal from the weight of the truths and emotions so many of us conveniently deny. "Use" was staged at the Post Museum on Saturday, May 3rd, for Migrant Voices' "Integrate" weekend event. Please visit migrantvoices.org to find out more about, and to support this unique arts society.
After gladly being used, she sang a little jazz and funk at a little cafe called Milk & Honey, on Binjai Park (in the vincinity of Bukit Timah) on Saturday. Gillian definitely couldn't have done it without James on keyboard, Eugene on guitar and Andrew on drums. The talented band plays with her other dear friend Jo who is the resident singer there. And she also wants to say thank you to Andrew for kindly drumming to her jokes.
Of course, she's grateful to Jo, Victor and Vicky for the gig and for dinner and continuous hydration. Last but not least, Gillian wants to say a big thank you to all the patrons and her friends who really livened up the place. She hopes to see you all again on June 7th, when she sings again!
