M.Butterfly: When is a play not a play?



When a new play is premiered, the focus of the criticism is on the text. Is it original? Is it relevant? Is it spelt out in a way that makes sense? The team’s technical abilities are secondary to the idea being presented.

PENGURUS PENTAS M.BUTTERFLY: Nur Ameera Ramli




NUR AMEERA BT MOHD RAMLI 
Gadis berusia 27 tahun yang dibesarkan di Kuala Lumpur ini mula melanjutkan pelajaran dalam bidang lakonan di UiTM pada tahun 2004 dalam jurusan Diploma Seni Persembahan (Seni Lakon) sebelum melanjutkan pelajaran ke Jabatan Drama Universiti Malaya, Ijazah Sarjana Muda (Pengarahan).
 
Sikap ramah dan mudah didekati beliau menyebabkan beliau banyak mendapat tawaran untuk berlakon dalam short film oleh para pelajar kursus skrin semasa di UiTM, walaupun beliau merupakan seorang pelajar teater. Bermula dengan teater SELENDANG JIWA, beliau kemudiannya terlibat dalam teater ALANG RENTAK SERIBU arahan Azhan Abd Rani sebagai pelakon dan teater MUZIKAL RAM, juga sebagai pelakon sebelum menyertai Festival Teater Selangor 2006 bersama THE ART STAGE CLUB (A.S.C) melalui teater AYAM JANTAN AYAM BETINA dan WAJAH LUMPUR sebagai WATI. Melalui watak WATI, beliau telah memenangi anugerah PELAKON WANITA TERBAIK bagi  Festival Teater Selangor 2007 dan Festival Teater Kebangsaan 2008.
 
Selain itu, beliau juga banyak terlibat dalam program mendeklamasi puisi sebagai penyajak, sebagai pekerja belakang tabir produksi teater dan terlibat sebagai korus dalam Teater URMI yang dipentaskan di Istana Budaya. Teater THE BIRDS merupakan penilaian beliau di Universiti Malaya yang dipentaskan di Auditorium Muzium Negara. Membawa watak Iskandar Muda di dalam pementasan MAK YONG TITIS SAKTI arahan Zizie Zulkifli yang dipentaskan di KLPAC. TANGAN KIRI AYAH adalah persembahan monodrama beliau yang telah berjaya di Festival Teater Selangor baru-baru ini dan terpilih untuk dipertandingkan ke peringkat kebangsaan. Terbaru beliau baru mementaskan teater KOMPILASI VOLUM 2 (LEGASI) di bawah Rumah Anak Teater (RAT).

Graduan Sarjana Muda ini pernah mengarah naskah “OOI YANG DI ATAS SANA” karya allahyarham Samoza untuk penilaian akhirnya di Universiti Malaya pada tahun 2010. Beliau juga banyak melibatkan diri di belakang tabir sebagai Pengurus Pentas bagi pementasan RANCANGAN HARI JADI TERHEBAT ADLI, SCANDALICIOUS ISSUE, SERANGAN PERTAMA ZOMBIE DI MALAYSIA, MEDEA, MUZIKAL UDA DAN DARA, MUZIKAL TERIMA KASIH CINTA, LAT KAMPUNG BOY SEBUAH MUZIKAL & PROJEK DISKO BALDI.

Sifat ingin tahu dan mencuba yang tebal dalam diri beliau kini membuatkan beliau beralih arah ke dunia tv/filem sebagai penolong pengarah/koordinator artis di PESONA PICTURES. Beliau baru sahaja selesai pembikinan filem PUTERA NEGARA arahan Shuhaimi Baba. Walaupun begitu berkarya di atas pentas masih lagi menjadi keutamaan beliau. Terbaru di dalam telemovie Aku Dia Dan Tong Sampah serta 90 Hari beliau mencuba posisi sebagai Penolong Penerbit. Beliau baru sahaja selesai menjalani penggambaran drama 8 episod bertajuk Arka arahan Shuhaimi Baba sebagai coordinator artis/penolong pengarah(3). Selain itu beliau juga aktif berlakon antaranya di dalam teater Kawan Kawan Yang Kita Suka dan terbaru filem pendek Odah arahan Junad M. Nor.

KENYATAAN MEDIA: Remy Ishak Tarik Diri Berlakon Teater M.BUTTERFLY

Pelakon TV Paling Popular Berita Harian (2009 & 2010) dan Pelakon Filem Terbaik Anugerah Skrin TV3 (2011), Remy Ishak menyatakan hasratnya untuk menarik diri daripada berlakon dalam produksi teater M.BUTTERFLY yang dijadualkan dipentaskan bermula 11-14 April 2013 ini di Blackbox, PUBLIKA Solaris Dutamas, Kuala Lumpur.

Remy (31 tahun) memaklumkan kepada pihak produksi bahawa pihak pengurusannya tidak bersetuju untuk beliau memainkan naskah M.BUTTERFLY yang mempunyai elemen seksual dan politik.

Drama  yang diinspirasikan oleh opera Madama Butterfly Giacomo Puccini memaparkan watak utama, Rene Gallimard, yang merupakan seorang kakitangan awam dihantar untuk bekerja di kedutaan Perancis di China. Gallimard jatuh cinta dengan diva opera China, Song Liling, yang sebenarnya seorang lelaki menyamar sebagai seorang wanita.

M.BUTTERFLY pernah dipentaskan di Euqene O’Neill Theatre, New York Amerika Syarikat pada 20 Mac 1988 hingga 27 Januari 1990 selama 777 kali pementasan yang diarahkan oleh John Dexter dan pernah difilemkan selama tiga kali yang berlainan pengarah iaitu David Cronenberg, Jeremy Irons dan John Lone.

Selain itu filem M.Butterfly pernah memenangi dua anugerah iaitu Cerita Terbaik di Drama Desk Award dan Tony Award pada tahun 1988.

Peranan yang dimainkan oleh Remy Ishak akan dipikul oleh Benjy. Benjy (35 tahun) mula berkecimpung dalam dunia lakonan seawal usia satu tahun. Beliau muncul buat pertama kali dalam drama hitam putih, Lembayung Petang. Sejak itu, Benjy membintangi banyak drama televisyen, siri komedi, filem dan pementasan teater. Antaranya ialah Perempuan, Kembali, Baginda, Kampungku, Buddies, Hanya Untukmu, Charlie’s Aunty, Spilt Gravy on Rice dan Kerana Cintaku Saerah (Jibek). Benjy pernah memenangi anugerah Pelakon Lelaki Terbaik di Anugerah Skrin untuk lakonannya dalam drama Kembali dan Hanya Untukmu. Kemenangannya dalam Kembali mencatatkan kali pertama dalam sejarah Malaysia di mana ibu (biduanita Azean Irdawaty) dan anak dinobatkan sebagai Pelakon Lelaki dan Wanita Terbaik dalam drama yang sama. Beliau juga pemenang termuda dalam kategori itu.

Pementasan M.BUTTERFLY karya asal David Henry Hwang ini akan diarahkan oleh Mislina Mustaffa, pelakon/pengarah teater dan filem. M.BUTTERFLY yang bakal dipentaskan ini merupakan teater yang dialih bahasa dari Bahasa Inggeris ke Bahasa Melayu.

Pementasan produksi Rumah Anak Teater (RAT Production) ini mendapat geran pengurangan kos produksi kelolaan Jabatan Kesenian dan Kebudayaan Negara (JKKN) dan menjadi sebahagian daripada MAP Festival yang berlangsung 23Mac-21 April di PUBLIKA, Sloaris Dutamas, Kuala Lumpur.

Sebarang pertanyaan boleh diusulkan kepada Faisal Mustaffa (012-2290944 atau rumahanakteater@gmail.com) selaku penerbit.

8. NOT FOR SALE
26 March – 2 April
White Box @ MAPKL
Admission is Free
----------------------------
In celebration of its 3rd anniversary, MAP brings together friends who are artists, art
collectors and gallery owners to showcase artworks that are NOT FOR SALE. The
show attempts to explore the ‘exclusive’ relationships between the artworks and its
owners in the context of an exuberant art market. It is about the negotiation between
spiritual values and commercial values. Artworks submitted may include a collectors’
most notable/ inspirational acquisition, an artist’s most revealing/revolting work, or a
‘special’ gift/inheritance, or perhaps in one’s opinion the ‘best art ever’. The show
attempts a reading of ownership as a reaction of desires and self-identity. It also
seeks to address the narratives between the object and the subject, the material and
immaterial, ‘matter’ and ‘what really matters’. NOT FOR SALE exhibition will be held
at the white box, MAP from 26 march until 08 April 2013, and precedes the henry
butcher art auction 2013 exhibition.
Participants include, artists such as Gan Chin Lee, Carolyn Lau, Poodien, Jalaini
Hassan, Ahmad Zakii Anwar, collectors U-Wei Hj Saari, Pakhruddin and Fatima,

Mentees receive a monthly stipend of RM1,800 to cover their cost of living during the programme as well as RM100,000 to stage their production.
Mentors selected for the programme will receive a token sum of RM5,000 for their participation.

2.      Apprentice Programme
This programme is targeted at individuals who would like to pursue a career in the performing arts industry but have little financial support to do so.
Therefore, apprentices will be placed at a performing arts company until December 2013 and receive a monthly stipend of RM1,800 to cover their cost of living
This is the first time that the government has made such grants and programmes available to the performing arts industry of Malaysia and in order for them to continue, we need to have a lot of applications to show them that there is a need for such financial assistance!


We are also seeking your recommendations for potential mentors and companies to host apprentices in your state (and region).

As it stands, we have many suggestions but most of them are based in the Klang Valley region and most are too theatre centric.

Additionally, if you (and other companies in your region) would like to employ interns or apprentices but don’t have the resources to do so, you can encourage them to apply and state in their applications that they would like to work at your organisation.

To find out more about these grants and programmes, visit: http://grants.kakiseni.com.

The submission deadline for applications falls on 31 March 2013 and 30 April 2013 so we hope to hear from you soon!
