About

The House of Lunatics by Nasrul Azhar

The House of Lunatics is an absurdist satire set in a crumbling household where three eccentric characters turn daily life into a storm of comedy, conflict, and chaos. Mixing slapstick humor with sharp social commentary, the play shifts between laughter and unease. The play invites audiences to enjoy the madness while questioning who, if anyone, is truly in control.

Strings (Deux) By Chia Yao & Mavin Woon

All his life, he's spent playing to her tune. 

30 minutes before the biggest show of his career, a life-changing confrontation with his mother forces him to reckon with the past he never had control over. Will his future ever be the same?

Strings (Deux) is a tense, heart-wrenching play about ambition, sacrifice, and generational trauma.
