Let Me Tell You A Story

About the show:

Relive the past through our oldest living historians, vividly brought to life through memories, animation, reenactments and archives. This generation of people witnessed life in the country before there was a nation and can still remember glimpses of a Singapore that we barely see traces of today. 

What was it like living in a bustling colonial city-state of immigrants, filled with colorful communities and languages? Or growing up in a time of kampungs and crowded urban squatter areas, where spitting was common and cattle still roamed the streets?  

From the stirring to the humorous, their recollections chronicle the personal coming-of-age of an entire generation born before WWII, and reveal intriguing insights from a vastly different era of Singapore.
