Stuck at home with nothing to do because of the Movement Control Order? Worry not, because we're here to keep the boredom at bay. Every day, we present our special curated list of arts, culture, and entertainment that you can experience right from your own home. Today, we start off with the free staging of Jane Eyre by the National Theatre. Then, we look at the mash-up we never knew we needed: performer Wes Tank rapping Dr Seuss’ classic children’s books over Dr Dre’s legendary hip hop beats.

Produced by: Juliet Jacobs, Sharmilla Ganesan
