About Deleted Scenes in SEA
BIPAM in association with Indonesian Dramatic Playreading Festival (IDRF) presents a play reading of censored parts in 3 plays from 3 Southeast Asian countries, whether it is caused by government sanction or self-censorship. The three excerpts – “INSURGENCY” by Elangovan, “Suksesi” by Nano Riantiarno, and “History Class” written by Prajak Kongkirati – were translated and read in a transnational and transcultural context.
SUKSESI (Succession) by Nano Riantiarno, Indonesia. It was written in 1990 and was banned after ten rounds of performances.
Performer: Saifah Thantana, Waywiree Ittianunkul, Pathavee Thepkraiwan
