A CLOCKWORK ORANGE

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 was 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.
