Synopsis : Set in Perak, Malaya in December 1941, Sybil Kathigasu, her husband Dr. A.C. Kathigasu, and the Captain (her Resistance contact) listen one evening to devastating news of the British defeat throughout the peninsula.

Suspicion is rife, Japanese collaborators are present in every town, and the feared Kempetai - the Japanese Military Police that is answerable only to itself - is beginning to take an interest in the small town.

Sybil, however, refuses the Captain’s advice to flee to the jungle, and instead redoubles her efforts to thwart the Japanese. Before long, Dr Kathigasu is arrested on suspicion of aiding the resistance, and Sybil’s arrest follows soon after.

She is subjected to torture and interrogation at the hands of Sgt. Yoshimura, the head of the district Kempetai, who is convinced Sybil is a Resistance spy.

Starring Sukania Venugopal, Doppo Narita, Darius Taraporvala, Ashraf Zain and Wong Wai Hoong and directed by Dato’ Faridah Merican.

Written by U-En Ng, based on the book "No Dram of Mercy" by Sybil Kathigasu.

enjoyed the play very much.. well worth the student's price i paid for.

but i don't understand the numbered and unnumbered setaing. that was a mess. how can you have 2 diferent systems in place? it's unfair for both parties... numbered seaters, cos they were promised those seats. unnumbered seaters cos they came in early to grab good seats. argghhh...
