About the Event

"An incredibly moving reflection and depiction of death and bereavement."
The Flying Inkpot

 

"Heartfelt, beguiling, and magical."
The Straits Times

 

When a father takes his life, his wife grieves, his daughter wonders, and his mother laughs. Berak looks at the whimsical journey of a family dealing with mortality. Adapted from Chong Tze Chien’s award-winning Poop!, Berak stars the stellar cast of Siti Khalijah Zainal, Fir Rahman, Siti Hajar Abdul Gani, and Aidli ‘Alin’ Mosbit.

 

With its humorous musings on family, love, and grief, Berak promises to speak to your heart in unexpected ways, filling it with magic, laughter, and hope.
