Teater Ekamatra (Singapore)

[Teater Ekamatra's] work has always felt urgent and contemporary, never flinching from the provocative or the experimental..

Corrie Tan, Artsequator

The team must be commended for their conscious effort to bring Malay theatre to a wider Singaporean audience through a mix of language and interesting themes.

Naeem Kapadia (Flying Inkpot)

[Teater Ekamatra’s] plays are highly relevant to the community… [they] are raw, honest, and full of compassion.

Just Watch Lah

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.
