A new hope for Malaysian artists

Labour of love: Like many artists, Azzad had to divide his time between the business and creative side of his stage directorial debut ‘Kenduri Kendara’ which is playing in KL now.

IT has been a stressful week for theatre director Azzad Mahdzir whose first show, Kenduri Kendara opened last Thursday in Kuala Lumpur.

His debut work is trying to push the boundary not only in its theme, which is an intimate look at a Malay-Muslim marriage, but also in its form with its use of multimedia for an interactive performance.
