SYNOPSIS
Three boys from different races are placed in the same dorm room, quite unheard of for a local university. Danny, Ali, and Ian soon find out they have a lot more in common – namely, poetry. With the guidance of lecturer Sir Hong, through poetry, they discover their similarities, their place in the university and in the nation. With their need to fight for what’s right and the questions they begin to raise, they discover who they are in the midst of a conflict that could possibly shake up the nation.

The Story of Cyrano de Bergerac
presented by Le French Festival & KL Shakespeare Players
supported by Alliance Française KL, Embassy of France in Malaysia
Paris, 1640. Never shying away from blood or fools, full of panache and a smooth talker, skilled swordsman yet soulful poet Cyrano de Bergerac is not so daring when it comes to love, as the shockingly large nose defiling his face prevents him from courting the beautiful Roxane, the love of his life.
For the first time in its history, Le French Festival partners with KL Shakespeare Players -one of Malaysia’s greatest theatre companies - to produce The StoryofCyrano de Bergerac, a French theatrical masterpiece written in 1897 by Edmond Rostand.
KLSP’s unique French-Malaysian version of Cyrano is bound to sweep the audience off their feet and take them on a lyrical journey like no other, performing key scenes of this classical play in contemporary English with a hint of French.

WHO WANTS TO MAKE MALAYSIA GREAT AGAIN?
To find out, join YBeeee & Curry Spice live with host Sean Ghazi on
Instant Café Night Live – the Talk Show we all actually want to see in Malaysia Baru.
Instant Cafe Breaking News In Your Face.
Exactly one year ago Malaysia made history by voting out the old and, well, voting in the even older. Hooray! And exactly one year later Malaysia will see history being made again: It’s a brand new Instant Cafe Show! That’s right, Instant Cafe is back to answer today’s burning questions like, why do we still have a Sedition Act, why persecute women for marching, where did I put my glasses, I mean, they were right here, and does this curry taste “fishy” to you as well?
The Talk Show Everyone Is Talking About
Yes, Instant Cafe is back with its very own “It’s Never Too Late, Late Talk Show” with the host, Malaysia’s West End singing sensation SEAN GHAZI and two very special guests:
He’s Malaysian Official 63, he may have lost the last election but he didn’t lose HIS equanimity, he’ll dress up as a dog and attack his own lawyer if he has to, he’s the only former Deputy Minister whose name you can still remember: He’s YBeeee! And he wants to Make Malaysia Great For Him Again (MMGFHA) #smallbossku.
AND
She’s the only member of her own girl band “The Asian Spice Girls”, she’s the star of “Keeping Up With The Coomarasamys”, she spent two weeks in London so she’s all, like, “in your face” and “know what I mean” and she plans to be the next Prime Minister of Malaysia. That’s right, she’s the bi-sexual, bi-pedal, bi-nocular woman from Sentul – Curry Spice! #inikarilah #innit
ALSO
You won’t want to miss the Surprise Celebrity Mystery Guests* AND the celebrity Guest Singers!

presented by Kopi Théâtre
Attention : La pièce est en français sous-titrée en anglais
1977. Suzanne Pujol est une notable de province dont le quotidien est dirigé par un mari aussi autocrate en famille qu'avec les ouvriers de I‘usine de parapluies dont son beau-père lui a confié les rênes. Victime d'un problème de santé il est obligé d’observer un repos absolu pendant quelques temps. Suzanne, chargée malgré elle d'assurer l'intérim à la tête de l'entreprise, va alors dévoile sa véritable personnalité...
La pièce est un énorme succès dès la première en 1980 et va être jouée pendant plus de 5 ans en France avant d’être adaptée aux États-Unis sous le titre « A Little Family Business » et jouée notamment à Los Angeles et New York en 1984. François Ozon en a réalisé en 2010 une version cinématographique très librement adaptée, avec Catherine Deneuve, Gérard Depardieu, Fabrice Lucchini et Karine Viard.
La troupe Kopi Théâtre qui regroupe des amateurs français et expatriés à KL, a pour ambition avec Potiche de vous faire rire en assumant le côté « bande dessinée » voulu par les auteurs et l’aspect « vintage » d'une histoire à la dimension sociale toujours d’actualité…
Attention: The show is in French subtitled in English
It's 1977, Suzanne Pujol, is a player in the local high society, and the wife of a public figure who runs her life. Having been entrusted with the operation of his late father-in-law's business, her husband is as autocratic with his family as he is with the workers of the umbrella factory Suzanne inherited. Becoming the victim of a health problem, he is ordered to absolute home confinement and Suzanne is forced to take on the role of acting head of the company, a responsibility she does not welcome, and that will in time, reveal her true personality....
The play was a huge success from the Premiere in 1980 and was played for over 5 years in France before being adapted in the United States under the title "A Little Family Business" and played in Los Angeles and New York in 1984. In 2010, François Ozon made a very freely adapted cinematographic version, with Catherine Deneuve, Gérard Depardieu, Fabrice Lucchini and Karine Viard.
The Kopi Théâtre amateur troop, made up of French expatriates in KL, aims to make you laugh at their presentation of 'Potiche'. Reviving the comical style of the original authors and the groovy style of 1977, together with social issues that are again, relevant and current in 2018, 'Potiche' promises an evening of laughs and retro style to everyone.
