JIT MURAD has, over the past decade, made a significant mark in Malays n theatre as actor, playwright and director. This award-winning artiste extraordinaire is just as well known for his appearances on film as well as television. (this second part can include in the write up or can leave it, according to space restrictions) In over a decade, Jit Murad has been in the forefront of a generation determined to make performance arts not just economically viable but an integral part of the urban culture.
Jit has written countless skits and has acted in even more and has been a constant feature in many local films and TV dramas. He does voice-overs too. Jit's alter ego, RenŽ Choy, an effeminate Sungai Wang hairdresser extraordinaire, with a cockeyed opinion on every subject under the sun, has been a favourite of KL audiences for many years. As a stand-up comedian, JitÕs inherent compassion, self-deprecation and lightness of touch gives him license to play court jester/philosopher.
