Chacko Vadaketh: Songs & Stories @ GEORGE TOWN FESTIVAL - 18-20 July!!
Do share if you think you know folk who’d like to catch it.
DESCRIPTION
What happens when songs from beloved musicals meet personal stories full of humour and heart?
Chacko Vadaketh: Songs & Stories is a solo show featuring popular Malaysian actor Chacko Vadaketh, with delightful accompaniment from an accomplished ensemble of musicians. It is a celebration of both his life and of Malaysia through his favourite songs and stories that sold out in Kuala Lumpur last year.
Featuring anecdotes of his colourful life: from his childhood in Kerala, carefree student days in Cambridge, to being a lawyer in Kuala Lumpur, an actor in Los Angeles and beyond.
Chacko Vadaketh: Songs & Stories takes audiences on a fun, cheeky, yet thoughtful journey of a shared history, of family and friends, and of nationhood.
MEDIA QUOTES
