“Mak Yong Titis Sakti" at KLPac
The Actors Studio Teater Rakyat & KLPac Presents
Mak Yong Titis Sakti
Shakespeare with a uniquely Malaysian twist!
SYNOPSIS
If you haven't watched a Mak Yong performance before, then you have to catch Mak Yong TITIS SAKTI.
Mak Yong is uniquely Malaysian traditional form of dance drama. You can't find something similar in the entire Southeast Asian region that brings together this lovely fusion of dance, drama, music, romance & comedy - yes, it's funny!
Inspired by Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, snippets of the love stories have been adapted for Mak Yong. If you've read the text, you'll see glimpses of certain characters from the classic but the staging itself stays true to the style of Mak Yong.
It's basically a light-hearted romance comedy. Three couples faced with three different predicaments. And because supernatural powers & fairy tales exist in a Mak Yong performance, the magical Bunga Sakti comes into play & this set of a series of unpredictable events.
The show will be performed in B.M. but you'll have access to scene-by-scene descriptions in English. We'll also put up an intriguing exhibition on Mak Yong @ the foyer.
