Remesh is a 50-year veteran of Singapore’s theatre scene, first treading the boards at 14. In the early 1990s, he became the occasional professional thespian.

 

This critically-acclaimed actor has worked with local and international directors, in drama and comedy, in Singapore and overseas, from Shakespeare to broad comedy.

 

He’s played God and the Devil, and many things in-between. He’s breathed life into an eclectic assortment of characters - from a talking vaudevillian chicken to Shylock to King Lear, a brilliant but declining mathematician to a gormless go-between, a beloved Hindu deity to an apartheid-era African, a blue-collar Malaysian tradesman to the Ghost of Christmas Present.

 

Along the way, in addition to rave reviews, this former Associate Artistic Director of the Singapore Repertory Theatre has picked up 5 LIFE! Theatre Award nominations and 3 wins - Best Actor (ART), Best Supporting Actor (Proof) and again, Best Supporting Actor (Merchant of Venice), and an Asian Television Awards nomination for Best Actor (The Hush). 

 

His forays into TV and film are more recent, with his portrayal of Nelson Kumar and Dr. D’ Silva in Weiyu Films’ The Hush and Derek. He was previously seen on local telemovies Common Space and The Learning Curve.
