The introduction of the play felt like it could be more brief, especially since there were not many interactions between the two actors who were placed on opposite ends of the stage. However, the play was admittedly a little too draggy. Perhaps the good acting played a role in how impactful the ending scene of the play was. This was done not only through Panicker’s physicality but in his voice as well. Panicker portrayed Morrie wonderfully, where each scene was able to highlight how Morrie was slowly inching closer to death. The play is narrated mainly from Mitch’s perspective, and yet, provides us insights to Morrie’s thoughts and life lessons through their conversations.Īctors Remesh Panicker and Benjamin Chow had great chemistry together, and when coupled with their brilliant acting, the adoring teacher and student relationship was convincing to the audience. The play is based on Mitch Albom’s novel with the same title, taking the audience through an old professor’s, Morrie, last days on earth and his interactions with former student, Mitch. It is no doubt that the play touched the hearts of the audience, to the point where sniffles and gasps of air could be heard resonating in the theatre. The Singapore Repertory Theatre’s adaptation of Tuesdays with Morrie left the audience teary eyed.
