NewTales from the Nusantara: The Princess of Lasem and The Masked Dancer

(A Collaboration with Malay Heritage Centre)


Immerse yourself in a magical storytelling adventure around the Malay Archipelago with Raden Gunung Sari and his brother, Raden Asmara Agung, as they set out across the Nusantara in search of their missing sister. Their journey takes a thrilling turn in the Kingdom of Lasem, where a wayang performance and a clash with the King and Prince of Tumasik lead to an epic victory and a happily-ever-after.

Experience this exciting tale with storyteller Hafiz Rashid and dancer Md Al-Hafiz Hosni, who will bring the story to life with a dazzling Tari Topeng (a traditional dance form that uses masks) performance! Learn fun facts about the traditional masks, try out the dance moves yourself, and enjoy a special tour of the Centre for Ethnobotany.

This programme is conducted in English and organised in collaboration with the Malay Heritage Centre.
