Making Theatre a Platform

Despite years of awareness campaigns, people living with HIV and AIDS continue to face stigmatisation. A play called Forget Me Not aims to raise awareness about this discrimination with a story inspired by a real-life person living with HIV. Produced by Anomalist Production, the show features the talents of debut playwright Aishah Mohamad and up-and-coming director Azmi Hud. We speak with them about bringing issues that matter to the stage.

Produced by: Sharmilla Ganesan and Lim Sue Ann

Presented by: Sharmilla Ganesan
