I strongly recommend to you the play, Rancangan Harijadi Terhebat Adli :)
I have discussed with many people the impression some have – like me before I came back from studying overseas – that Malaysia is not all that ‘happening’, esp in the arts scene.
This is totally untrue. There’s a bustle of good stuff happening everywhere, and I implore you to be a part of it :) I also think there’s a big divide between the BM and English oriented arts, and invite you to help cross that divide – the rewards are many and well… eminently rewarding :)
I greatly enjoyed RHTA. I thought it was brilliantly composed, and I loved the way it made me laugh and constantly caught me off guard.
I have submitted a full review for publication, so will wait on that for a while before saying more – stay tuned :)
In the meantime, please do go watch it!

‘Rancangan Hari Jadi Terhebat Adli’ is the story on Adli, an aspiring playwright. After his best friend Musa decides to marry his secret crush of many years, Adli invites his closest friends over for his 25th birthday party retreat at a kampong far-far away, in an attempt to win the love of Deliah and to impress his friends at the same time. Ambition turns into blind and ruthless obsession as Adli tries desperately to get what he wants, to no avail. Old rivalries are unearthed, and deception runs wild among this dysfunctional group of friends. There is also a birthday surprise for Adli. His friends hope he will like it.
