As soon as they settle down, the atmosphere unexpectedly shifts - lights start to flicker and the students find themselves locked in the now eerie classroom. In a dusty corner of the room, Adam stumbles upon a mysterious book called Mahsuri (& Other Peculiar Tales) which begs to be read.Slowly, he starts to read the book and, in a flash, the classroom and its occupants morph into the backdrop for an age old Malaysian legend. The kids find themselves lost in 18th century Langkawi and Adam must help magical Mahsuri (Badrika Baluch), wife of warrior Wan Derus (Joshua Gui), escape from the wrath of her mother in law after false accusations of adultery and dishonesty are thrown on her.Important:The film will be screened on Peatix Live.Purchasing tickets to this event will provide you access to a screening on Saturday, January 9th 2021 at 8PM (MYT). For screenings on other dates, purchase tickets here instead: Friday, January 8th and Sunday, January 10th. Awards:WINNER - 2016 BOH Cameronian Award for Innovation in Musical TheatreFINALIST - Tokyo Short Shorts Film Festival WINNER - 2020 BOH Cameronian Award for Best Direction in Musical Theatre (Sepet The Musical)The Team:Directed by Shafeeq ShajahanProduced by Su En HohMusic & Lyrics by Shafeeq Shajahan Starring Badrish Isdin, Badrika Baluch, Joshua Gui, Nabilah Hamid, Nave VJMusic Production & Arrangement: Irena Taib For more information, please contact Shafeeq (+60104029323) or visit www.liverandlung.com
