The cast of ' The Best Nyonya ' Sonia Lee, Kimberly Chan, Wee Shyre May, Beena Shu, and Sophie Budden. The musical is a production of Melaka-based theatre company Krate .

“I was fascinated by the tensions that arise between personal choice and societal expectations. At its core, this show explores themes that are universally relatable: navigating family dynamics, following your heart and being true to yourself. “While it’s set in a historical context, the emotions and challenges the characters face are very much rooted in the present day. As someone of Peranakan descent, this story is also a tribute to my own heritage – one that I hope sparks both nostalgia and newfound appreciation in others,” says Wee.
Designed as a fully immersive experience, the main hall of the Georgetown Mansion, will be transformed into a living, breathing stage. The actors will interact with the audience, respond to their energy, and in some moments, even invite them to play small roles that move the story forward.The performance, which will be staged Thursday to Sunday each week in May, will be presented primarily in English spliced with some Peranakan lingo .
