Hello
Hello~~
What to do in the
weekend?? Why don't you go all the way to KL!!! Well, not really but there's something going on in Kent
that will bring you all the way to KL. Don't believe it? Here’s how:
Putting our own Malaysian
twist to one of our childhood tales, we are proud to present to you University
of Kent Malaysian Society’s Evening With Malaysia
2013: Anastasia.
Follow the
determined Anya as she travels to the heart of KL in a journey of self-discovery,
along with Dimitri- the conman and loving son with lessons to learn along the
way, and Muthu- the buddy they both need to lighten the mood. Meet Rasputin,
the bitter ‘bomoh’ twisted by jealousy and his loyal but misguided servant
Bartok. Watch the heartbreak of a grandmother who loses the only family member
she has left and the theatrics of the mismatched but very much in love couple
Aunty Sofia and Pak Mir.
Can’t get
enough of Malaysia in one weekend??? There’s another in store for you the next
weekend!!!! Now it’s time to travel back
to the PAST and UP
NORTH~~~ No more KL but
there’s PERAK!!!! No more Kent but towards CARDIFF.
Held in the illustrious St David's Hall, the National Concert
Hall of Wales, Festival of Diversity is a massive Malaysian cultural
extravaganza, consisting of an original full-length musical, followed by a
breathtaking Dikir Barat performance. On her 10th edition, she will dazzle you with “the
greatest love story that was never told"
The brave
Dato Maharajalela heroically defends his beloved village of Pasir Salak,
against the ever-growing threat of colonial oppression. However, the villainous
Perak Resident J.W.W Birch is a cunning adversary, determined to suppress the
rebellion. Now Maharajalela is faced with the difficult choice of whether to
trust the beautiful Petronella. Does she truly love him, or will she betray him
to the wicked Resident?
SO that’s TWO
doses of everything Malaysian!!!! Get your bags ready and travel. Hope to see
you soon. When you’re back in Portsmouth, it’s going to be all hands on Deck
because we’re going to be travelling ourselves. Here’s a CLUE!
Nenek,
nenek, si bongkok tiga.
Siang mengantuk, malam berjaga.
Mencari cucu dimana berada.
Nenek kahwin dengan anak raja.
