Dondang Dongeng - Retelling Folklores in Songs

The show "Dondang Dongeng” started out with a simple question: do people, especially kids, still know of our local folklores? A team of creatives then got together to weave less remembered stories into a dreamscape, presented in the form of songs with a modern twist, and produced by Playspace in collaboration with RMP Productions. We speak to Irena Taib (Composer / Music Director / Arranger) and Iefiz Alaudin (Artistic Director / Storyteller) to find out more.
