Our Productions
We started out with a dream to produce high quality "Broadway-Style" musical theatre experiences in Penang. We want to build self-esteem, team-work, maturity for our youthful casts of amateur and semi-professional actors, from age 14 up to 100!
That dream has taken clearer shape, along with the theatre performance landscape of SouthEast Asia, and experiences we have gained, working as a closely-knit and supportive community!
