Fifteen years later, all grown up and world-weary, she questions relationships: "What we have is not perfect, so this must be love!"

This is The Girl From Ipoh - Wong Mei Lee's life story told in an hour and fifteen minutes. It is her life straight out of a black and white 1960s film, her little world made out of those little voices singing in her head and the loves of her life. It is a Chinese love story, told to redeem her Chinese roots.

The play explores an issue that plagues many-a-Malaysian - when is a Chinese person not Chinese enough? Does speaking English without sounding Chinese make them a traitor to their culture? Or does speaking 'mat-salleh' sounding Chinese make them an abomination to the race? Does liking everything Western mean a degradation of everything that is Asian?
