The annual Law IV production has been an honourable tradition of the National University of Singapore Faculty of Law since the late eighties. Each year, the graduating class will put up an artistic performance in aid of a chosen charity. In NUS, we are not only trained to be technically astute lawyers, but are also given the opportunity to develop our non-legal talents, ranging from script-writing and song-writing, to acting, singing and dancing. At NUS Law School, legal education goes much further; it also develops the individual and inculcates values such as compassion and a broader concern for society.

This year, the Class of 2009 presents an original musical entitled The Perfect Wedding. A musical written, produced, directed, from cradle to grave by our very own students, The Perfect Wedding promises to bring about a celebratory tale of love and romance as the characters face their struggle with aspiration, love and sacrifice to finally see which aisle they finally choose to walk down. All proceeds, after accounting for the cost of production, will go to our adopted charity, the Spastic Children's Association of Singapore.

The Perfect Wedding will run on 19th, 20th and 21st September 2008, at 7.30pm in the NUS Bukit Timah Campus Auditorium. Tickets are going at $50, $20 and $15.

The Guest of Honour for the event is the Attorney-General, Professor Walter Woon.

Professor Walter Woon, who made his mark as a law academic, a Nominated MP and as an envoy before becoming Solicitor-General, is Singapore's fifth Attorney-General. The Attorney-General's role is to be the Government's main legal adviser. He also decides which criminal cases to prosecute.

Professor Woon's legal career began with his being called to the Singapore Bar in 1985, four years after graduating from the National University of Singapore's law school with first-class honours. He also holds a master's in law with first-class honours from Cambridge and served as Vice-Dean of the National University of Singapore Faculty of Law.

As a Nominated MP from 1992 to 1996, he made his name as the key driver behind the House approving the Maintenance of Parents Bill in 1994. It remains the only piece of legislation since 1965 which was not initiated by the Government.

He was a Nominated Member of Parliament from 1992 to 1996 and also served as legal adviser to the President and Council of Presidential Advisors from 1995 to 1997. From 1997 to 2006, he served as Singapore's ambassador to countries such as Belgium, Greece and Germany.
