GALA CULTURAL NITE – AN INSIGHT INTO THE HEART OF SRIWANA
2010 Emerald Anniversary Celebration – An Ode To Believing kicks off with a grand official opening for the evening. Artistic excellence from SRIWANA’s cream of choreographers, namely, Osman Hamid, Hjh. Som Said – both Cultural Medallion recipients, Fauziah Hanom Yusof, Fauzi Anwar – budding and promising in-house choreographers and many more will be graced by our strong and talented pool of 50 SRIWANAs’ dancers both existing as well as dancers before.

Collaborating together, experienced Indonesian choreographer Sukarji Sukarman with his wealth of knowledge in modern and traditional performing arts and the artistic excellence of the group, an interesting dance piece will evolve. Injections of foreign artistic elements will definitely elevate the group’s performance and not to mention the knowledge and experience gained from such collaboration.

Special appearance of the members of the alumni – they will combine with the existing dancers, to bring back mesmerizing memories of their early days with the group – a nostalgic trip down memory lane.

SRIWANA is also extending their invite to dance performers from the other Malay Performing groups like Teater Tari Era, Sri Warisan and Majlis Pusat to name a few to celebrate together their 55 years of achievement. Also totally live music accompaniment of the re-known Sri Mahligai, a local Malay traditional music ensemble and a collaboration with reknown leading Indonesian violinist, Tengku Ryo Riezkan.

Not losing in importance is another SRIWANA’s forte – theatre. This year we have the appearance of our very own drama iconic Norsiah Ramly and Azman Shariff together with our very own talented children. This tragedy and thriller was written by Cultural Medallion recipient Nadiputra.
