Acting Highlights

Some highlights from 20 years of acting (Or you could just see my full CV here ☺)

Tartuffe

The Straits Times - "The cast is superlative across the board. Jo Tan ... in particular bring(s) fire and depth to Elmire, all too aware of how society makes clever women collateral for a man's idiocy."

Forked

Fringe Review - "Tan embod(ies) ...a world full of characters—her father, mother, school friends, and fellow drama students—all of whom are brought to life with incredible versatility. Tan’s physicality, vocal range, and use of accent are impeccable, making each character distinctly convincing."

Por Por's Big Fat Surprise Wedding

Tatler Singapore- "Rainy (is) masterfully played by Jo Tan....a masterclass in comedic timing"

King

UK Theatre Weekly - "Truly a tour-de-force performance, Tan shifting from bossy executive to drag queen to bored fiancé in seconds....Bringing to each character great authenticity"

Session Zero

The Straits Times - "Tan’s commendable and dramatic shape-shifting...(lets) shades of conflict come to a potent head"

A Bit

The Straits Times - "Tan, a chameleon of a performer... is a deadpan delight, even launching into a full-blown anime theme tune."

Time Out - "Hysterical performance...cleverly delivered by the playwright herself."

Arts Equator - "Fantastic ear for dialogue and great accents… She plays the mother, the boss...the dubbed anime character."
