Meenah and Cheenah are back!

2GETHER GATHER!

12 – 22 May 2022
Capitol Theatre

It’s the post-pandemic theatrical gathering everyone has been hankering for. Last seen in 2019, these two besties are biting at their leads and readier than ever to tickle you a nationalistic red and white, with all shades of pink in between. Then, it was One Meenah, One Cheenah, One Singapore! Now, in this next instalment, get set for Meenah and Cheenah 2gether Gather!

Directed by Selena Tan, and written by Alfian Sa’at, Rishi Budhrani and Jo Tan, this is a brand new show, with brand new skits, brand new insights and brand new side-splitting laughs.

With wide-eyed cheeky grins from all the nostalgia and general mischief, the superlatively talented duo – Siti Khalijah and Judee Tan – return to reprise the roles of Meenah and Cheenah – with levity and love. This hysterical comedy duo will regale you with tales of their growing up years, of a time when everything was stress-free, worry-free, and most definitely Covid-free!

Exhausted from all the fear and loathing of the pandemic? Frustrated with the ever-changing rules and regulations? Need an escape from all the pivoting? Well then, come together at the Capitol Theatre to catch Meenah and Cheenah 2gether Gather!

“Two of theatre’s most gifted comedians, Siti Khalijah and Judee Tan, parody and pay homage to Malays & Chinese.” – Helmi Yusof, Business Times

Singapore’s new favourite duo is back by popular demand! After a successful debut with rave reviews, sold-out shows, and a Straits Times Life! Theatre Awards Best Actress nomination for Judee Tan as Cheenah, Meenah and Cheenah are back to make you laugh so hard your dentures may fly out! (True story!)

Best known for playing hilarious characters such as Dr. Teo Chew Moi (Happy Ever Laughter®, Dream Academy®) and Kim Bong Cha (The Noose, Mediacorp), Judee Tan teams up with the irrepressible two-time Life! Theatre Awards Best Actress winner Siti Khalijah Zainal once again to tickle audiences in this highly anticipated rerun of their hit debut.

If you missed the show in 2016, this is your chance to catch Meenah and Cheenah as their memorably outrageous characters in a series of well-loved sketches. Who can forget Hang Li Po and her handmaiden? Has the Pontianak’s evil laughter become more evil? Which Meenah dance track and Cheenah hit anthem will they add to their solo dance segments?

A celebration of Singapore’s multicultural landscape and unique sense of chapalang humour, join Meenah and Cheenah for a night of bellyaching laughter as they take you on a journey of relatable milestones and answer the burning questions you have always been to shy to ask: what to wear for Racial Harmony Day, Ramadan etiquette, and even the difference between Malay and Chinese spirits!
