As the evening progressed, the Men in Black, joined Superman, Chewbacca and a host of aliens and space heroes, who hit the dance floor till the wee hours.
Guests were also treated to an amazing priceless auction items and experiences from supporters like Audi and MasterCard, who helped to ensure that SRT meet its fundraising goal for the evening. As a non-profit organisation, such fundraisers are core to supporting SRT’s productions and programmes for the year.
Amidst the cocktails, drinks, good music and guests, there will always be a standout for the evening and it goes to former Miss Singapore, Rachel Kum, winning the prize for Best Dressed with her risqué, alien body painted suit; while Queen Amidala and Thor lead the MasterCard table in winning Best Dressed Table for the evening.
