Matahari 太阳

For generations, humanity has lived under the comforting certainty that the sun will always rise. Yet what if that certainty could no longer be taken for granted?

Performed by ZXC Theatre Troupe, “MATAHARI” is a visually striking post-apocalyptic fable that explores the fragile relationship between humanity and the natural world. Once revered as the source of life, the sun now stands as a silent witness to centuries of human ambition, exploitation, and neglect. As environmental collapse looms and the fate of the sun itself hangs in the balance, humanity is forced to confront the consequences of its actions.

Blending powerful storytelling with compelling imagery, MATAHARI invites audiences into a future where darkness threatens to become permanent and the promises between people and planet have long been forgotten. In the face of an uncertain tomorrow, the work poses a haunting question: if the sun were to disappear, what would become of us?
