The Working Dead

Award-winning Malaysian musical The Working Dead, returns to the stage with its unique blend of humour, heart, and social commentary. Set against the backdrop of a corporate world where overwork becomes literal life and death, the story follows Edwin, a salaryman transformed into a zombie by his boss to keep up with the demands of his job. Featuring catchy songs, lively choreography, and a talented cast of local performers, this production also champions a charitable cause, collaborating with the Dignity For Children Foundation to support marginalised youth, some of whom will make their stage debut. Presented by KULT Productions, we find out what's in store from writer and producer Terence Toh, and actor, singer and performer Ida Mariana.
