Lawak Ke Der 2015

IBC_2935 copy‘Lawak Ke Der’ merupakan persembahan komedi yang telah diperkenalkan sejak tahun 2012 lagi. Lawak Ke Der 2015 adalah produksi keempat susulan daripada ‘Lawak Ke Der?’, ‘Lawak Ke Der 2’ dan ‘Lawak Ke Der 3’.

 

Seperti setiap siri Lawak Ke Der yang lalu, Lawak Ke Der 2015 juga akan mengekalkan mutu persembahan setiap pelawak yang ditampilkan. Ini akan dipastikan oleh pengarah persembahan iaitu pengarah dan pelakon terkenal, Hans Isaac.

Lawak Ke Der sememangnya dikenali sebagai persembahan komedi yang berkualiti. Antara pelawak yang pernah membuat persembahan dengan Lawak Ke Der setakat ini adalah Johan, Zizan, Kumpulan Osbon, Harun Salim Bachik, Ahmad Nabil, Kumpulan Jambu dan Kuah Jenhan.

Tahun ini, penonton pasti akan terhibur dengan persembahan yang akan disajikan oleh pelawak-pelawak terbaik negara :

Harith Iskander – Bakatnya dalam bidang komedi tidak dapat disangkal lagi, sehingga dia digelar sebagai The Godfather of Malaysian Stand-Up Comedy. Jika selalunya Harith dilihat membuat persembahan dalam Bahasa Inggeris, dengan Lawak Ke Der penonton akan dihiburkan dengan cerita-cerita lucunya yang disampaikan dalam Bahasa Malaysia.

Afdlin Shauki – Sebelum terkenal dengan persembahan komedi secara berkumpulan, Afdlin merupakan seorang stand-up comedian.

IMG_8952SINOPSIS RINGKAS

Kisah lucu 4 orang sahabat, Aben, Bob, Jerry dan Wak yang berpakat untuk merompak Tauke Wong, seorang tauke kedai pajak, bagi mendapatkan kembali kerongsang nenek Wak yang telah dipajakkan ketika Wak mahu mengahwini Nazatul. Menyedari nilai keronsang itu begitu tinggi, Tauke Wong tidak mahu menjualkan kembali kerongsang tersebut, lalu menaikkan harga bunganya berganda. Wak tidak mampu membayarnya.

Dalam keadaan yang terdesak, 4 sahabat itu merancang untuk merompak Tauke Wong, hanya kerana untuk mendapatkan kembali kerongsang tersebut. Lagaknya seperti Robin Hood abad baru. Leman mendesak agar mereka mengajar Tauke Wong dengan merompak apa sahaja barang yang ada di kedai pajak itu. Sahabat yang lain tidak bersetuju dengan ide Leman kerana mereka sebenarnya bukanlah pencuri dan jauh di sudut hati, mereka sebetulnya takut dengan akibat yang bakal menimpa. Namun, Leman kemudiannya telah menarik diri di saat akhir.

Rancangan harus diteruskan dan persiapan rapi diatur. Setelah melakukan beberapa siri latihan, perbincangan dan strategi, akhirnya hari yang ditunggu-tunggu pun tiba bagi membuktikan kejantanan mereka. Tanpa diduga, kejutan telah menanti mereka di kedai Tauke Wong. Kedai tersebut telahpun dirompak terlebih dahulu oleh orang lain! Lebih malang lagi mereka berempat yang terpalit lumpurnya. Dengan sarung kaki wanita sebagai topeng dan timun serta terung yang dibalut bagi menampakkan seperti senjata, mereka telah ditahan polis ketika di kedai Tauke Wong, atas cubaan merompak. Hanya Jerry yang terlepas kerana berada di dalam kereta yang bakal mereka gunakan untuk melarikan diri. Kawan-kawan yang berada di lokap mula mencurigai Jerry. Ini kerana Jerry mempunyai beban hutang akibat suka berjudi. Namun begitu, Jerry jugalah harapan kawan-kawannya untuk membuktikan yang mereka tidak bersalah dan seterusnya mendapatkan kembali kerongsang nenek Wak.
