Malaya
This international street theatre troupe, established in 1991, masterfully blends various disciplines of performing arts including dance, music, and circus, with stunning visual effects. Their breathtaking performances weave a narrative and can be best described as magical and mesmerizing.
Adding to the enchantment, the performers embody almost mythical characters, easily recognizable by their archetypal appearance and grand costumes. The interactive style is both surprising and direct: performers on stilts engage with the audience, immersing them fully in the world of the show.
The company has been invited to countless prestigious international festivals to perform as either the opening or closing act. All their productions share a common trait: visually captivating street theatre that transcends age, language, and cultural barriers.
Malaya:
The spectacle is an odyssey, a journey with mobile objects through dreams and nightmares.
The destination remains elusive while dreams are undeniably real. Upon reaching this destination, it is merely an awakening from a dream. What did we experience? Naturally, it is all fiction and the characters are unreal, yet our emotions feel so genuine. Power and significance, threats and temptation, joy and sorrow. These are the emotions they aim to share with the audience.
