Prominent theatre producer and the Chairman of Persatuan Angkatan Seni Lakon Interaksi, Kuala Lumpur dan Selangor (ASLI) Goh You Ping joins us as we delve into the history of modern Chinese theatre in Kuala Lumpur, exploring its evolution from a nearly non-existent scene in the 1990s to the vibrant community it is today. Goh shares his personal journey as one of the few students who dared to pursue theatre during its formative years, recounting the challenges he faced such as juggling a day job in television to support his passion for theatre at night. We discuss the early struggles of the theatre community, from limited venues to the lack of stage equipment, to the current challenges they face in the scene. From passing the baton to the younger generation and the future of performing arts in KL, join us to listen more about Goh You Ping’s inspiring journey.

Pameran Teater Cina will be running from October 10th to November 10th, 2024, at GMBB KL, an exhibition that showcases the history of modern Chinese theatre culture.
