ABOUT
STANDSTILLS MOVEMENT is curious about time play.
Having graduated with a BA(Hons) in Musical Theatre from LASALLE, Director Md Al-Hafiz Hosni attempts to time travel to specific human moments and explore how different characters think, feel, react, interact and respond differently. He is also intrigued with the "what if" and "what could have been" if different decisions were made if time were to be rewound.
As a service, STANDSTILLS MOVEMENT also aims to store and share memories and archival of events and performances through digital time capsules.
