The traditional and the contemporary come together in this mixed bill dance performance, where Malay traditional dance forms like zapin, joget, and inang are reimagined through a fresh lens. We speak with the KonTra: Bianglala’s director, Zhafir Muzani, and featured dancer/choreographer Ker Yee Teng, about the show and the possibilities they see in traditional dances.
