Everyone’s A Critic - Experiencing Usman Awang

Paying tribute to writer, poet, and National Laureate Usman Awang, Kuala Lumpur Performing Arts Centre’s return to live theatre celebrates the written word alongside performance. Directed by Datuk Faridah Merican, the show features various interpretations and translations of Usman’s writings, bringing together poetry, music, dance and visuals. We review the show, and rediscover the joys of live performances.

Everyone's A Critic is jointly presented with CENDANA. For updates on Malaysian arts and culture, visit BASKL.
