Environmentally friendly issues, which are known as Green issues, are gaining popularity in Malaysia. While there may be a lot of skeptics in America about global warming and human impact on the environment, Malaysians in general do believe that we humans have a responsibility to the environment that we live in. As such, there are now a number of green policies that are pursued not only on a national level but also at grassroots level, including no plastic bags days and an emphasis on reduce, reuse and recycle. Educating the younger generation of course, remains a vital key in ensuring that whatever changes that are made will continue to be built on and expanded in the future.
In light of this ,the Singapore Repertory Theatre, one of the leading theatre groups in the region, in association with Adventure Theatre Washington DC, will be presenting a play about how the young can go green, so to speak, and do their part to save the planet this September. The play is entitled Just A Dream – The Green Play and follows the antics of a young boy named Walter who is indifferent towards the environment. That all changes when he has a dream one night about how life will be for him in the future. The play, which was designed for younger audiences, is recommended for 4 to 10 year olds, although all of us, both young and old, could learn a thing or two about how how we can help preserve and protect this planet we live in.
The play will run from 15th to 24th September at Pentas 1, klpac. Normal tickets are priced at RM38 for weekday shows and RM63 for shows on weekends and public holidays. There are special promotions, including a family package price of four tickets at RM132 for weekday shows and RM212 for weekend shows. Those who are interested may call 03 4047 9000 / 9010 or walk in to klpac at Sentul Park for more information. Showtimes are scheduled as below:
15th, 19th till 23rd September – 10.00 am and 2.00 pm
16th till 17th and 24th September – 11.00 am and 2.00 pm
