There is a first time for everything!!


Yesterday we went to a Stage Comedy show at Penang Performing Arts Center. First time ever going for such show like this. The show titled "Indian Lawyers! Saints or Serpents?" is a tongue-twisting Malaysian comedy about the seemingly magical powers of Indian lawyers.

Serious Comedy studios have a history of creating sharp, witty insights into the idiosyncrasies of Malaysian culture and they hit the nail on the head once again with Indian Lawyers! Saints or Serpents. It was 90 minutes full of entertainment and good acting bythe small cast of four comprises of Malay, Chinese and Indian... the true Malaysian "Muhibbah" spirit.!!!

The play spins an amusing tale of a Chinese man who will only settle for an Indian lawyer after he is accused of a terrible crime, witnessed by a young Malay man. The story follows the build up to the trial and the defendant’s desperation to get an Indian lawyer to defend him. All Indians are supposed to have the power to “speak Indian” and make you doubt yourself despite being one hundred percent certain before any question, so the obvious career for most should be a lawyer! The show is definitely worth viewing.
