| Synopsis : | Family. Death. Politics. A family's anguish after the death of the father - a politician who is mysteriously assassinated - is told through the eyes of his wife, his fourteen-year-old son, and the dead man himself. The man, a potential hero in the Indian community, refuses to remain silent, thereby adding to the mystery, which illuminates a murder that has gripped not just the Tamil community, but the entire nation as well. As the trio tell their story - through dialogue and monologue, flashbacks and present day events - a sinister and uneasy web forms, linking affairs of state, power, faith and ego. Who has assassinated this man? And why? Ultimately, however, Hero transgresses national and political interests, and arrives at that most intimate and unique of spaces: the family home. Following the recent critical success of ‘Air Con’, The Instant Cafe Theatre Company (ICT) presents the second play under its FIRSTWoRKS playwriting banner - Hero by Arun Subramaniam. Starring Indi Nadarajah and Anne James, and introducing Ley Shahrwind. Directed by Jo Kukathas and Zalfian Fuzi. |
