How do you try to keep things straight… when you’re anything but? 

Queer people in Singapore have had to 'act straight' for so much of their lives. Either to navigate rules which do not favour them, avoid discrimination or simply fit in and be accepted in society. 

This is the premise for Wild Rice's Straight Acting, a hopeful, heartfelt comedy about two couples and the drama of trying blend a little hetero fiction into their queer realities.

We speak to two of the play’s stars, Darren Guo and Deonn Yang, about what they've learned about queer life, family values and finding one’s tribe.
