Our Name

​

P7:1SMA (pronounced as PRISMA) refers to prism in Malay.

The letter 'R' and 'I' is replaced with 7:1 to symbolise the optical element of the triangular prism. Light is reflected to evoke spectral colours.

Our Philosophy:

Dance is a strategy, Malay is a concept

​

P7:1SMA, also referred to as Prisma, is a dance performance company helmed by Norhaizad Adam. Our core ethos revolves around the belief

that "Dance is a strategy, and Malay is a concept." Through our creative endeavors, we navigate the intricate blend of tradition and contemporary practices. Our mission is twofold: to delve into moral complexities

and to push the boundaries of tradition.

 

At the heart of our approach lies a commitment to respect and reciprocity. By confronting moral dilemmas head-on, we aim to challenge entrenched traditions, fostering a space where new understandings can flourish. Through our innovative works, we seek to reshape perceptions of

Malay culture and identity, inviting audiences to explore new

realms of thought and appreciation.
