The Point

I was at a meeting this afternoon at which the future development of the drama segment of what is known locally as the SYF (Singapore Youth Festival for those outside these shores who may be wondering) was under discussion. At one point the notion of abandoning the system of adjudication leading to the various awards on offer was floating around. One young man looked both startled and baffled over this possibility asking what the point of schools performing their plays was if awards were not on offer.

Celebration, said someone, succinctly.
