DiverseCity: Aduh, Seroja!

Artistic director of ASWARA, Joseph Gonzales breathes new life into traditional arts the likes of joget, gamelan and silat. The storyline sends out a strong feminist message as the performance examines the plight of four maligned and disparaged Malay heroines – Tun Teja, Mahsuri, Tun Fatimah and Putri Sa’adong – as victims of treacherous slanders of the men in their lives.
