ENCORE MELAKA REVISITED

    20TH JULY 2026    ~ The main agenda of the Melaka trip this time was to watch and introduce the theatre "Encore Melaka". This was my second time at the theatre, the first time was back in 2018 [READ HERE]. I wanted to introduce the show my friend, Mr. Redzuan, who seemed to be keen in watching.

The hall was about 50% full on Monday evening. One side of the seats was filled with busload of school children.

The show that I watched was almost the same with the one presented 8 years ago. However, the old one was longer and more elaborate. The new one was simplified and there were scenes that was cut off, I think.

It was customary to take photos around the iconic theatre building on the reclaimed land. We even managed to catch the sunset before going home. I did the same when I was there the first time [READ HERE].

You can buy the tickets online and it cost RM78 for Malaysian citizen. I bought from Agoda and got RM10 cheaper. You must watch Encore at least once. By the way, there was another show with a different theme in the afternoon which would be something new.

One thing worth mentioning, I found the seat was very uncomfortable. It was hard and the leg space was too small especially for a long-legged person like me. I wonder if the management could do something about it.
