Showtime Pageant
And you thought you knew what domestic workers were capable of, who they were and the limits of their achievement?
HOME Showtime Pageant was held at NTUC Auditorium, One Marina Boulevard on 27 June 2015. The 'extravaganza' was organised by and for domestic workers. Domestic workers in Singapore let their hair down, put on their frocks, danced, sang and had a good time. Well done to the organisers for a spectacular event.
Images from rehearsals can be found here.
It's incredible what foreign domestic workers get up to on their days off:
On 14 June 2015 I had the pleasure of attending a rehearsal of the HOME Showtime Talent Pageant at Chinese International School. Here is a report on last year's show. Filipino, Indonesian and Indian domestic workers were having a wonderful time practising their moves, dancing, posing and taking selfies. The final will be held on 28 June 2015.
At the same time the HOME Academy were holding a Caregiver Course and Advanced Baking Course for domestic workers. The quality of the cakes and bread produced by the baking course participants was outstanding. These Courses are held on a 6 monthly basis and intakes take place in January and July each year.
