Run: 21st – 23rd Feb 2013

This latest production by Teater Ekamatra is coming soon (as in real soon), so be sure to go get your tickets before it begins its run this Thursday.

“Tahan” is a new work written and directed by Irfan Kasban, who is Associate Artist at Ekamatra, and stars Rizman Putra, Tan Shou Chen, Farah Ong, Isabella Chiam, Faizal Abdullah, Andy Yew and Farez Najid.

It also features the musical talents of Bani Haykal, while Zizi Azah serves as lighting advisor.

Synopsis is as follows:

“Adil, whose name in Malay stands for ‘fair’ or ‘just’, turns 18, and receives a letter to serve his country. He is posted as a law-enforcer, where after months of training, he meets a team of men, and women, who live to serve and protect. Adil notices their resemblance to Angels, who are believed to carry no emotions, no desires, only a medium in administration.

Not prepared for the ‘real world’ of law-enforcement, Adil finds himself learning and re-learning several ideologies and skills while carrying out his duties. All his preconceived notions were debunked as he finds truth behind faces of ‘faceless’ men and women who make a living by being fair and just.

Tahan follows Adil’s journey to the discovery of the life of angels in prominent disguises, and the discovery of himself, in a land where no man is above the law.”
