Hello, SA1!

Whoa! This is my third post for today. But I must say sorry first for using the blog for my personal purpose. Hehe! On 31/3, 7pm, our hostel will be having a musical, titled: "come here, nobody knows". I'm not performing, just helping out with the stage management thingie. Uhm, from what I have seen so far in the rehearsals, it is a good musical to watch. It is written and directed by one talented person in residence. She is from the IB programme. She also composed all the music in the musical by herself. On the day of the performance, she will also be the one who will be playing the piano for all the songs. Yes, she is very very talented ... a near professional, I should say.

The musical is about a struggle between fantasy and reality and love. Love makes people stupid, love makes people evil, love makes people selfish. For the ones who yearn for that pure, unconditional love, they seek love in their fantasy and then painfully realize they will never have this love in reality. For the ones who just use love as decoration to their lives, they try to hold love tight in their hands and fit love onto their fancy dresses without knowing that they are just killing love. Uhmmm .... If you don't know what I'm talking about, you must come to the musical. Haha!

Ok, I think I might give you some parts of the lyric of one of the songs as the trailer ... hehe:

There was once a bridge over the ocean
There were once two continents
I would watch from above like I had God’s sight
I used to run to the other side
But now the wonderland is out of my vision
Now the bridge has been broken
What am I to do?
How am I to live in one world?

Somebody come free me
From this burden I have to carry
Somewhere on earth
There’s a shelter I believe
I shout and cry out
I’m bleeding to find a hand
Just one hand

(By Meicen, "Come here, nobody knows", 3rd revised edition)

Actually, Maria and I will be having some tickets to sell. :). It goes at $8/ticket. All the money collected from the selling of tickets will go to the Children Cancer Society. I know there are a lot of people out there who are calling you to donate here and there but still, this is a chance for you to do something good and can have some benefits (entertainment).

Hmmmm, I do not think you will be much interested in this musical but I will just publicize it anyway. :D. I do not want to be scolded by all of you later on so I think I must warn you of something first. Since the performance is totally done by our residents, they are all foreigners. They do not have Singaporean accent. Yup! And this musical is more of a tragedy. Actually, it's a tragedy. There will be no parts when you can laugh throughout the musical. Uhmm ... but I still think it's deep, meaningful and it leaves you something to think about after watching it. I watched it 2 years ago, and now I decided to help out to stage it again. Yes, yes! So yah, if you are interested, can buy tickets from Maria or me. I think they will set up a ticket booth in the canteen next week as well.

Come and support us!
