Sponsors included ntv7. |
 |

The return engagement of MENOPAUSE THE MUSICAL in 2007 saw an unprecedented 6-week run at The Actors Studio @ Bangsar Shopping Centre, making its 44 performances Malaysia’s longest-running show.

Since their first visit to Kuala Lumpur, GAMARJOBAT became one of Gardner & Wife’s most requested shows. Winning several new awards, including Best International Act 2006 at the Brighton Fringe Festival, GAMARJOBAT returned to Malaysia directly from another successful season at the World Buskers Festival in New Zealand. Ketch & Hiro-pon played to capacity audiences for their entire two-week run at The Actors Studio @ Bangsar Shopping Centre. |

"The Specialists" saw the return of UK string trio PLUCK back in Kuala Lumpur for a three-week engagement at The Actors Studio @ Bangsar Shopping Centre. Presented by Gulf Air, the award-winning Edinburgh Fringe favourites delighted old and new fans with their unique combination of classical music skills and contemporary comic talent. |
 |
THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST LUKE marked an interesting departure from Gardner & Wife's traditional comedic genre. Bruce Kuhn's remarkable dramatisation of the Biblical chapter created a unique theatrical combination of sacred literature and acting prowess. It played for a total of over two weeks at The Actors Studio @ Bangsar Shopping Centre as well as several performances in Singapore . Sponsors included The Embassy of the United States of America and First Coach. |
 |
BROADWAY AH BENG! was Gardner & Wife’s second co-production with Singapore-based The Dream Academy, and Gardner & Wife's first non-English language show. Sebastian Tan and his three "chio bu"s (chorus girls) performed mostly in the Hokkien dialect. Presenting sponsor Crocodile provided media sponsorship, enabling the show to advertise on radio and billboards. Other sponsors included First Coach, Pensonic and Spotlite. |
 |
WANTON ME! was Gardner & Wife’s first co-production with Singapore-based The Dream Academy. This Singaporean cabaret performed to enthusiastic fans of Hossan Leong and Selena Tan – winner of Best Comedy Actress at the Asian Television Awards in 2004 & 2005 – for two weeks at The Actors Studio @ Bangsar Shopping Centre. Sponsors included First Coach, Pensonic and Chemical Touch. |
 |
Gardner & Wife’s first show from Asia, GAMARJOBAT, created tremendous word-of-mouth excitement, playing to frequent standing ovations for over two-and-a-half weeks at The Actors Studio @ Bangsar Shopping Centre and proving why this “shut up comedy” won top comedy awards at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival two years running – Best Dubble Act 2004 and the Tap Water Award 2005.
