The Little Company’s production of Roald Dahl’s Fantastic Mr Fox in 2012 was a huge hit with parents, teachers and children.

“Very interactive”
“Engaging and true to the book!”
“Enjoyed by both children and adults.”

This July, SRT’s The Little Company is excited to present Fantastic Mr Fox in Mandarin!

Fantastic Mr Fox is a classic tale of goodies and baddies. It is an inspiring story about the brave and clever Mr Fox who, with the help of his family and friends, outsmarts three farmers’ nasty schemes in order to provide food for the animal community.

The farmers Boggis, Bunce and Bean have been digging up the animals’ home, trying to get Mr Fox by any means possible. Trapped underground, Mr Fox and his family and friends are starving, leaving Mr Fox with no choice but to devise a plan to find food for everyone to survive.

Filled with humour and packed with action, this is a fantastic show to be enjoyed by children of all ages. 

Our Parenting World – OPW Media team is pleased to be able to interview Vester Ng (VN) – Fantastic Mr Fox. About Vester, he joined the LASALLE College of the Arts’ BA (Hons) Musical Theatre programme, after previously studying at Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts’ Diploma in English Theatre programme. His credits include Fat Kids are Harder to Kidnap (How Theatre), Metamorphosis (Matt Grey), Urinetown (George Torbay), Fiddler on the Roof (Emily Maltby) and Aida (Joe Barros). Vester also had the honour of performing in The LKY Musical where he played the role of Ng Kai, directed by Steven Dexter. With experience also in local films and television, Vester wishes to pursue a career in the entertainment industry in all its forms. 

Exclusive Interview with Vester Ng ( 黄健顺 ) – Fantastic Mr Fox

1. Please share with us more about your background and what sparked your interests to be an actor?

VN: Since young, I enjoy being on stage and I was not shy to sing or dance or perform in front of strangers. However, I didn’t think that I would be an actor by profession until my first encounter with acting in a musical.

The first musical I did was West Side Story when I was in ITE. It was my CCA and I decided to take it further, therefore I entered NAFA to pursue a Diploma in English Theatre. After graduating from NAFA, I continued on in LA SALLE for my Bachelor in Musical Theatre.

2. Can you tell us more about your role in Fantastic Mr Fox?

VN: I play the role of Mr Fox. He is the head of the family and tries his best to provide food for his family. Throughout the play, you can see how he goes through hardship, using his intelligence to come up with strategies to search for food together with his family against the farmers.

3. What are the challenges that you faced in acting out your character and how did you overcome it?

VN: It is always harder to portray a non-human role. I wanted to portray my character as close as possible to the behaviour of the real fox in the animal kingdom. I tried my best to bring out the character by going online to research and watching several documentaries to get the essence of a fox’s behaviour.

4. What are some of your favourite scenes?

VN: Most of my favourite scenes are actually those with the farmers involved. Those scenes are funny, entertaining and I am sure audiences will feel the same way as I do.

5. Do you have any advice to children who would like to go into acting and how can they do it?

VN: I will tell them to just go for it! Don’t be shy! There are many speech and drama courses available for kids and they should go sign up if they are really interested in acting.

6. Any interesting things that you would like to share with our readers about Fantastic Mr Fox and what can audience expect when they come and watch the show?

VN: Just come and join us for lots of fun, joy and laughter throughout the show. And also, prepare yourself for some “DIGGING” experience.
