Full details: Takhta Mahasari by Nyala Dance Theatre event guide
Nyala Dance Theatre brings Takhta Mahasari to klpac in Sentul Park for three nights starting 18 December 2026. Choreographer Kerol Mohtar reworks Malay-Nusantara art, culture and tradition into a new creative dance production using movement, music and costume. The 90-minute show runs without intermission and is performed in Bahasa Malaysia. Doors open 15 minutes before the 8.30pm curtain.
What to expect
Three evening performances run from Friday 18 through Sunday 20 December. Numbered seating means every ticket holder has an assigned place. The piece draws on heritage motifs but stages them through a contemporary choreographic lens. No interval breaks the flow.
Tickets and how to attend
Tickets are sold only through CloudJoi at a standard price of RM50. E-tickets are the sole format; there are no phone or over-the-counter sales. Resale or unofficial tickets may be refused at the gate. Attendance is ticketed only.
Getting there
klpac sits inside Sentul Park, a quiet green enclave north of the city centre. From Cormar Suites on Jalan Perak the Grab ride takes 15 to 20 minutes, longer during rush hour. Ask the driver for the klpac drop-off at Sentul Park. After the show, book the return Grab as the audience exits; cars arrive quickly from central Kuala Lumpur.
Where to stay
Cormar Suites Kuala Lumpur makes a central base for Takhta Mahasari by Nyala Dance Theatre. The newly renovated 4-star hotel is about 15 minutes’ walk from the Petronas Twin Towers, with Bukit Bintang’s food streets close by. Its studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom suites are larger than a standard hotel room, with comfortable beds, a full kitchenette and a bathtub, and there is a rooftop pool and Parry Road Cafe downstairs for breakfast before the event.
How to get there from the city centre, what is nearby and the full event details are on the Takhta Mahasari by Nyala Dance Theatre guide. Event dates fill hotels fast: book direct with Cormar Suites for the best available rate, and confirm times and entry rules with the organiser before you go.
