Preview: Frenemies by Prem John and Chandi Perera

Two strangers from Singapore and Malaysia are thrown together by a simple customer service request. In this antiromantic comedy, things rapidly spiral out of control and, what follows escalates into a war of words so absurd, it could put the most dedicated penpals to shame. In this play, – somewhere between the petty complaints, personal digs, and strange admissions – two souls realise they might have more in common than they thought. Frenemies is a twisted, laugh-out-loud journey through love, hate, and all the dangerous places in between. Rejoice this December in a hilarious entertainment that doesn’t mention the ‘C’ word, but a satirical reminder that love is for every day, and not just for Christmas.  

Caveat emptor – does NOT contain schmaltz. Directed by Susie Penrice Tyrie, produced by Prem John and Chandi Perera, and stars Chandi Perera and Amit Joshi.

Frenemies plays from 6th to 15th December 2024 at 42 Waterloo Street. Tickets available from Peatix
