Teater Ekamatra presents its take on Anthony Burgess's 1962 cult classic, A Clockwork Orange. Adapted by Zulfadli Rashid and directed by Noor Effendy Ibrahim, A Clockwork Orange takes place in a repressive, totalitarian state where ordinary citizens have fallen into a passive stupor of complacency, blind to the seething discontent amongst its youths. The play will be performed by Rizman Putra, Elnie S Mashari, Roslan Kemat, Shafiqhah Efandi, Suhaili Safari, and Izzul Irfan, in Malay with English surtitles.
In a city filled with often-broken promises,
I am your good narrator, brother.
Now, help yourself.
As I
warble,
and you
peet.
A dash of blood
and
a little keroncong.
Alas
there will be
no hollow
after our hearts
grow stale
of crying.
