Some examples of Censorship which took place over the past few years include:
- a 2005 ban on the content of the script for a play, Human Lefts, that meant a totally new one had to be put together within 3 days.
- a 2007 performance about a possible MRT bombing, where organisers were told a day before the scheduled opening that the authorities had deemed it inappropriate to be shown outdoors (it eventually opened a month later, within a covered tent).
