HIGH TEA 3: Cheras Cheras & Neverland
A Theatrical Performance
The Annexe Gallery
Fri 21 Nov (8pm), Sat 22 Nov (11am, 3pm & 8pm) & Sun 23 Nov (11am & 3pm)
Presented by TEA Theatre
Admission RM15 (student) & RM22 (adult)
High Tea 3 is a double-bill of two new plays, Cheras Cheras and Neverland. Both plays will be performed in Mandarin. The running time of the show is 1 hour and 45 minutes with a 10-minute intermission.
CHERAS CHERAS by Power Tea Generation
One ordinary night, six ordinary Cheras residents experience a collective mental outburst that changes their lives. Each one respond to the outburst in a different way, spurring them to find the right answer to their predicament. Presented in six sketches that are in turns funny, serious, outlandish and surreal, Cheras Cheras is a modern-day meditation on the fast changing life in the city and how it affects us in fundamental ways.
NEVERLAND by Tea Teens
Neverland is a multimedia theatrical experience dealing with existential issues that affect us today. Neverland is music, physical performance, rapping, recitations. Neverland is about instant gratification and the pleasure principle. Neverland is about a delusion of the ideal. Neverland is an escape from reality. Welcome to Neverland!
