‘Seruan Setu: The Secret Gardens of the Sea’ highlights the need to conserve the country’s endangered seagrass.
Prepare to be enchanted by the soothing sounds of gamelan at ‘Seruan Setu: The Secret Gardens of the Sea’.
As artistic director of the show, Zahim Albakri, 60, had a tall order – that of bringing science and music together. But the multiple BOH Cameronian Arts Awards winner faced the challenge head on. Zahim is an acclaimed director whose previous works include “Puteri Gunung Ledang The Musical”, “P Ramlee The Musical”, and “Cuci The Musical”.
Some of the composers and creative team even took a trip to Johor where they walked in seagrass meadows and spoke with the people who live off them. “But the music is the strength of it. So, the inspiration behind how it’s presented is from the music,” he added.As the content mapper of the show, Mark Teh, 42, had an integral part to play. “I help the different teams figure out how to bring together all the artistic and content elements they have,” said Teh, adding that these included the artistic, lighting, and set design teams.
Ooi wanted to cast a spotlight on Malaysia’s endangered seagrass ecosystems. In fact, the word “seruan” means “call” in Malay, while “setu” refers to tape seagrass which are declining in Malaysia.
