In 1948, a “state of emergency” was declared in British Malaya to meet the threat of Communist rebels. At a small town railway station on the west coast, a young university student waits to take the train going north. He encounters an elderly man who goes to the station. In the meeting of a young mind and an old experience, the student is posed to resolve a dilemma before he can take the train going north. Written by Dato’ Syed Alwi half a decade ago, Going North has been produced as a radio play and TV drama. However, this is the premier staging of this original play in English!

Troubadours / Open Doors
Presenter: Troubadours Enterprise & KLPac

Featuring:
Short film screening – James Lee, Azharr Rudin and Tan Chui Mui
Acoustic performance – Azmyl Yunor, Broken Scar, Ian Chow and Da Praise Project

For those who are unfamiliar with Troubadours, it is a regular music event held around the Klang Valley since April 2005. Helming this enterprise are singer songwriters Azmyl Yunor, Tan Sei Hon and Jerome Kugan who organized Troubadours as a showcase for local talents performing original music. Troubadours nights are intimate and friendly, and attended by a diverse group of musicians and music-lovers.

With this new collaboration, the core objective remains the same – to feature talented Malaysians who write and perform original material, solo or in a band. However, this series is specifically driven towards introducing new musicians to the local scene. It serves as a much-needed platform for such musicians to showcase their work.

To kickstart Troubadours / Open Doors, an exciting line-up of old and new names on the local circuit promises a refreshing fusion of original music. Featured musicians include Azmyl Yunor, Broken Scar, Ian Chow and Da Praise Project. Exclusive to the launch will also be an independent short film screening prior to the performances, selected by James Lee.

Troubadours / Open Doors series will take place on the third Sunday of each month at KLPac. Music lovers can expect an even more exciting line-up in the months to come. Those interested to showcase their music, please email your details (biodata & song lyrics) to
troubadourskl@gmail.com and ian@klpac.com
