Swordfish + Concubine, a Play

The playwright tells about the evolution of his work, written in 2004, which was first staged in the island-nation south in 2008. Then again in 2011. After more than ten years after the writing, the play comes to Kuala Lumpur in English. In 2016, the play was performed in Mandarin. The actors weigh in on a discussion of performance in English language by tropical bodies.
