Hasbe Zuraini Abu Bakar, a seasoned educator with expertise in English, literature, and theatre, has long been driven by a passion to bring the transformative power of the performing arts to a wider audience, with a special focus on inspiring the younger generation.
Her project, "The Sensory Drama School Tour", was one of six recipients of the Krishen Jit Fund for its 2024 cohort, announced earlier this week in KL. The grant, now in its 19th year, is administrated and managed by Five Arts Centre. The projects will be awarded between RM4,000 and RM12,000, with the total funding amounting to RM51,000.
