Belacan Geragok and Other Prawns
Playwright, actor, teacher and BOH Cameronian Arts Awards nominee Mark Beau de Silva lures theatre buffs back to KLPac with his all-new play Belacan Geragok and Other Prawns.
Created by Beau de Silva and actor Ashraf Zain, Belacan Geragok and Other Prawns is based on a story about two Malaysians—Emmanuel de Cruz and Adam Malik—struggling with the trials of life and romance.
Emmanuel is originally from Ujong Pasir, Melaka, and has moved to KL. He loses his job at a TV station during the economic downturn. Adam, who has never been out of KL except for a short stint at The Malay College Kuala Kangsar, lends his dear friend Emmanuel a helping hand by coaching him through several mock interviews. Hilarity ensues as the two men’s relationship and past unfold right before our eyes.
Belacan Geragok and Other Prawns is a workshop performance that was first performed in March. Each workshop performance ended with a discussion where the audience could ask questions and share their thoughts with the two creators. The feedback and ideas were incorporated into the show you’ll get to see in May. Described as fun, snappy, and bitchy, the new and improved Belacan Geragok and Other Prawns promises to be worth a taste. Don’t miss it!
