Music by Johann Strauss
Choreography by Jie Choong Wan-Chin
Bella is a repressed housewife; Jonathan is an ambitious architect; and the Bat is the hidden nature of us: moving amongst the shadows and manifesting in the night.
Jonathan is so obsessed with his work, that he neglects his wife who is desperate for attention. The Bat envies Jonathan and vies for Bella’s love. He appears in the night and takes Bella to the Nightingale pub where she is transformed into the most beautiful and seductive lady.
In the end, Jonathan finds out that love is not a possession and struggle to regain Bella’s love. Only when he is losing her that he realises what love should be like. Finally Bella rediscovers herself, and finds love.
