Synopsis

In conjunction with Teater KAMi’s production of SALINA at Pesta Raya, this session delves into the impact of war on Malay theatre and literature post-World War II. Framed through the lens of A. Samad Said’s novel, the source material for SALINA, the discussion will unpack how the turbulence of war, colonial rule and the struggle for a national identity shaped the themes, narratives and artistic expressions of that era.

Rafeyah Abdul Rahman, Dramaturg & Writer

 

Moderator:

Liyana Nasyita, Manager (Programmes), Malay Heritage Centre
