Interview with Mister Maker and the Shapes

Mister Maker is coming to Singapore! From 10-12 June, meet the evergreen Mister Maker, as he brings his own brand of humor and creativity live at Downtown East. We have met Mister Maker previously, but this time round, we had the privilege of conducting an interview with him. Yep! Certainly exciting,  as we get to find out what makes Mister Maker tick!

For those who are uninitiated, Mister Maker is a preschool television series where Phil Gallagher (aka Mister Maker) takes kids on a journey of fun and creativity with everyday items. On this live edition, Mister Maker will be appearing with a supporting cast, with art at its heart!  The show  will encourage Mini Makers and grown-ups to sing, dance and make some noise with lots of audience participation.

Check out our email Interview with Mister Maker, as we found out more about the show:

1. How did the idea of the show come about?

This is our first ever dedicated live theatre show – I am so excited! I wanted to create a live show that all ages would enjoy – not just the Mini Makers but the grown-ups too. It is a fun arty party and I hope everyone that comes to see the show has a wonderful time (and is surprised by my dance moves)!

2. Where do you get all your ideas from?

I think the most important thing is to start collecting your own ‘doodle drawers’ of arty materials for a rainy day. This can be just an old shoe box that you fill up with materials that might be useful one day…and these materials will give you great arty ideas!

3. How long do you take to practice for each act?

I rehearse every day! The great thing about our live show is that anything can happen…

4.What’s your favourite act in the entire show?

The moment when The Shapes take to the stage for the first time is something to behold! The noise levels in the theatre increase…and then of course everyone sings “I AM A SHAPE LA LA LA LA!”. 

One of the things that makes me most proud is that wherever we perform our live show, children and grown-ups give us such a warm and excited response. It is heart-warming to hear the reactions of the crowd and I am so thankful for their support.  

5. What’s the funniest thing a child said to you in the show?

How did you get out of the TV?

A lovely question, which makes me very proud too, because it means the child really believes in the character and loves the show)
