Ridhwan Saidi adapts P. Ramlee’s classic film with a dose of social commentary. Performed at KongsiKL, the newest edition of Kaos Nol’s Teater Normcore series feels like a form of guerrilla theatre, purposely minimalist and low-budget to focus attention on the production’s craft, script and performance. In this play, playwright and director Ridhwan Saidi has taken inspiration from P. Ramlee’s 1965 film Masam-Masam Manis, loosely adapting … Continue reading ★★★☆☆ Review: Teater Normcore 3 – Masam Manis 酸甜 by Kaos Nol (Malaysia)

★★★☆☆ Review: No Corners by Decadance Co.

Decadance’s new work explores space and comfort in the heart of Orchard Road Considering how distracting and noisy the surroundings are, performing a dance in the middle of Orchard Road seems counterproductive. Yet with Decadance Co’s No Corners, the site-specific work makes full use of its unique performance area, and allows the surrounding chaos to further inform its message of comfort and discomfort. A collaboration between choreographer … Continue reading ★★★☆☆ Review: No Corners by Decadance Co.
