Kuala Lumpur audiences will have the chance to see Puteri Gunung Ledang the Musical during a limited run from 31 October to 15 November 2026. The production will be staged at the Jeffrey Cheah Performing Arts Centre (JCPAC) at Sunway Square, in the Kuala Lumpur area.
What is Puteri Gunung Ledang the Musical?
The musical draws on the legend of Puteri Gunung Ledang, or the Princess of Mount Ophir, one of the best-known folk tales in Malay culture. The story centres on the fabled princess and the conditions she sets for a royal suitor, a narrative that has inspired films, books and stage works in Malaysia. This production brings that tale to a live theatrical setting, combining music, performance and stagecraft. Audiences can expect a full-length musical experience rather than a straightforward retelling, though specific casting, creative team and staging details have not been confirmed here. Those planning to attend should check official event channels closer to the date for confirmed information.
Where is it and how do I get there?
The venue, the Jeffrey Cheah Performing Arts Centre, sits within Sunway Square in the Klang Valley. Sunway City is served by the BRT Sunway Line, which connects to the wider public transport network, and ride-hailing or taxi services are widely used for the final stretch. For those travelling from central Kuala Lumpur, allow extra time during weekday evening peak hours, as traffic on the main routes towards Sunway can be heavy. Visitors are advised to confirm the latest route options and travel times before setting out.
What should I know before attending?
With a run of just over two weeks, tickets for popular performances may sell quickly, so booking early is sensible. Check the official event listing for show times, age guidance and entry rules, as these details can change. Arrive with time to spare for security checks and seating. Those coming from outside the Klang Valley may wish to plan transport and any overnight arrangements in advance, particularly for weekend shows, when demand for travel and dining in the area tends to be higher.
