Show Notes

In this episode, Adam and Budi continue the 2nd Annual Audio New Play Festival with a conversation with the Singapore-based playwright of the upcoming audio play BEAUTIFUL, Raiya Basalamah.

Raiya Basalamah is a Singaporean artist who has performed in numerous stage productions throughout her actor/theatre training at School of the Arts, Singapore (SOTA) and Victorian College of the Arts (VCA). In that time, she has written for devised works that dealt with gender dysphoria, as well as cultural and religious identity. She has also written poetry that was included in Write the World’s ‘Best Of’ annual magazine in 2016.

When @raiya_writes, she is especially intrigued by the rawness, passion and mystique behind her personal experiences. The grey areas of life, society and culture are constantly on her mind, and as a young woman, empowerment and spiritual healing are her greatest ideals. These form the backbone of her writing.
