PETALING JAYA: Valentine’s Day is around the corner, and while most people are fretting over gifts and dinner reservations, Big Nose Productions is offering something unique in the way of a play called “Tales from the Bedroom 2”(TFTB2).

TFTB is the brainchild of producer/playwright Fa Abdul, who worked alongside resident director Matthew Koh, an international school teacher, whose quick wit and hilarious brand of comedy, adds a dash of spice to every play Fa has written.

Speaking to FMT, Fa said, “‘Tales From The Bedroom 2’ is a collection of short plays about the wackier side of relationships. Think of it as a once-a-year romantic comedy extravaganza you would not want to miss.”

TFTB 1 which was staged during Valentine’s Day last year was sold out its entire run.

Speaking about last year’s successful debut, Fa said, “It couldn’t have done so well without the support of an amazing cast, crew and of course, an appreciative audience.”

With subject matter that the audience could relate to, TFTB 1 became an interestingly themed Malaysian production and succeeded in entertaining its audience en masse.

This year, Tales from the Bedroom 2 is coming back, bigger and better than ever with a comedic theme, sure to keep the audience in stitches.

“With a no holds barred approach to romantic comedy, this year’s depict stories from ancient Chinese dynasties to the modern virtual dating world.

“We’ve got a little bit of everything. Unrequited love. Insatiable love. Even obnoxious love.

“If you’re into bedroom humour, even if it’s about farting during sex, then you should come see this play,” Fa said, giving a sneak preview about what audiences are in for in TFTB 2.

The show will open next week in conjunction with Valentine’s Day weekend and will be staged at Indicine, KLPac, Sentul Park, Jalan Strachan, Kuala Lumpur, from February 12-14 at 8.30pm, with matinees on February 14 and 15 at 3pm.

Tickets are priced at RM35 so call 03 4047 9000 or book at www.ticketpro.com.my.

Due to the mature subject matter of the stories, the show is only open to those above 18 years old and viewer discretion is advised.

Big Nose Productions’ other plays include “In A Nutty Shell”, “Dim Sum Masala”, “Tales From The Bedroom 1”, “Entropy” and “Nasi Kandaq Gulai Tempoyak”.

Besides Fa and Matthew, others in the production company are Hazril Harith, Andrew Loh, Nik Waheeda, Mia Sabrina and Sudhan Nair.
