The venue is the 110 year-old theatre Panggung Bandaraya, in Jalan Raja, at the Dataran Merdeka . The musical production MUD, tells the story about our very own capital city, Kuala Lumpur. Combining fact and fiction, the story comes alive depicting the trials and tribulations of the beginning of KL as a frontier town in 1857. Then the great fire of KL happened in 1881, followed by the destructive floods at the end of the same year. This story of KL is also the story of friendship and multiracial unity among the people, resolute in rebuilding the city. The main characters are Mamat (played by Anding Indrawani of AF fame), Meng and Muthiah.
MUD the musical is interactive theatre, with the involvement of members of the audience. I myself was involved twice, once getting quite carried away on stage! How? I'm too embarrassed to tell, heheh! But I'm sure you too will really enjoy being involved because the cast's enthusiasm is very infectious.
This musical production is by Enfiniti Vision Media, and presented by KL City Hall. A one hour-long musical, it is set to run for three years (it started in July 2014), with daily shows, and 86 cast and crew members.
Best of all, after the show, you will be invited on stage to take photos with the cast. A beautiful end to a wonderful show.
