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?

The Malaysian Real Book II: Past to Present

“The Malaysian Real Book II” brings together three of Malaysia’s finest jazz vocalists—Ida Mariana, Janet Lee, and Yon Lynn—in a vibrant celebration of the Great Malaysian Songbook. Singing traditional standards and contemporary originals from the treasure trove of The Malaysian Real Book – songs in Malay, Chinese and English – their individual and combined styles are innovative and charged by boundless musical joy, all rooted in a distinctly Malaysian jazz sound. Expect soaring vocals and a foot-tapping vibe carried by the rhythms of swing, bebop and soul, and accompanied by the award-winning WVC Jazz Sextet.

ISLANDER SURGE 3.0

Every island speaks in its own way. Some voices emerge through singing and language, while others are carried within the rhythms of everyday life and embodied memory. As these sounds travel across seas and distances, carrying local textures and native tongues, they gradually move toward one another and intertwine—forming extending soundlines that connect place, memory, and human presence in invisible ways.

Street Fragments: Jalan Gurdwara

Slow down and look closer, the streets here hold many untold stories beneath their surface. “Street Fragments: Jalan Gurdwara” invites audiences to rediscover one of George Town’s familiar streets through the traces of its layered past. Once known as Brick Kiln Road—named after brick kilns whose exact locations have long been forgotten—today’s Jalan Gurdwara takes its name from the century-old Sikh temple that continues to stand as a landmark of the neighbourhood.
