Johnnie Walker Black Circuit Lounge Race Party Great Britain @ Penang Turf Club

January 5, 2013 by thejessicat

 

 

 

I know, I know! Don't chastise me. This blogpost is late, tell me something I don't know LOL 

Many of you have been asking me about my Johnnie Walker Black Circuit Great Britain post.

 

Nadia & I at the official photowall, flanked by the usherettes

 

Guests and A-listers were in for a treat once again, at Johnnie Walker's VIP race party, as they threw their signature Black Circuit Lounge event – with a distinctly British twist this time!

I was excited to be flown to Penang again to attend Johnnie Walker Black Circuit Great Britain :D

Read my previous adventures at Johnnie Walker Black Circuit Brazil & Johnnie Walker Black Circuit Penang

 

 

The flight was pleasant, with a slight turbulence but it felt like I traversed two different universes altogether.

I was sweating buckets whilst boarding the plane from KL due to its sweltering heatwave, blistering sun and humidity. But as I alighted the plane 45 minutes later in Penang, it was unbelievably, very cold as the heavy downpour soaked our backs and shoes :/

 

That's Malaysian weather for you. Unpredictable. Tsktsktsk. 

Anyway, no matter. I was buzzing with excitement for tonight nonetheless! :D:D

 

Arriving Penang International Airport & met the chauffeur.

 

As the dress code for tonight's event was 'British Glamour' I wanted to (as always!) stick as closely to the theme as possible. The event was aptly held simultaneously during the London Olympics hype as well!

So after some research…

 

I came dressed in a velvet red bowler hat, a trenchcoat, a classy long asymmetrical dress,

dark blue nailpolish, two floral rings, laced-up boots & a Union Jack handbag

 

Hope that worked! :D

We were treated to international & local cuisine during the buffet dinner at Gurney Hotel.

 

Here are some of the dishes at the buffet spread!

 

There was also a carving station for grilled meat. Hello chefs!

 

After a fulfilling meal, guests were driven to Penang Turf Club – a historical racecourse built by the British – where the party was at.  

I was quite thrilled to see how the equestrian club as transformed into a party scene just for one night!

 

This way please

 

As expected, there were door greeters dressed as traditional London royal palace guards.

Men in uniforms never fail to make an impression on me. Hubba-hubba! 

 

Salute!

 

Took some piccies at the Johnnie Walker photowall with some friends! 


Bumped into buddy Ren at the entrance

 

One of the many suave ushers of the party

 

Whilst mingling at the entrance, I was asked to speak in front of the camera for the video footage of the event. I think I spoke about what I thought of the event thus far, what I see/feel and what I'm expecting from the party by the end of the night! :D

 

Yadda yadda I go for the camera :P

 

((STYLESHOT OF THE DAY))

Jessicat wears : Beige asymmetrical dress & Union Jack handbag from online stores |

Accessories by Diva | Velvet Bowler Hat in red by Deeper & Harder | Boots from a bazaar in Australia

 

Stepping inside the Black Circuit, I caught sight of many Formula 1 related merchandise, ones by their corporate partners McLaren Mercedes & Vodafone to be exact. 

 

Some of the stuff on display!

 

Being essentially a race party, there were F1 racing sound effects accompanying us along the corridor.

With every step I took, sharp-but-not-too-piercing sounds of BROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM! VROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!! VROOOOOOOOOOM! of race-cars followed thereafter.

 

Watch out! The race-cars are hot on your heels!

 

Finally made my way into the arena.

It was really huge, quite an elaborately decorated interior & was already packed with guests!

 

The color scheme of the lighting changed periodically from almost all the colours of the rainbow!

 

The walls were also plastered with interesting visuals of Great Britain and its landmarks

 

Photobooths were in abundance everywhere.

This is just one of them –

 

Photoception. Took a photo of the photobooth taking a photo of me taking a photo of this moment LOL

 

Bumped into buddy Minny whilst I was inside.

She was working as one of the usherettes for the event and collected my signature to Join the Pact.

 

Minny & I 

 

Join the Pact? What's that?

As Johnnie Walker advocates responsible drinking, their worldwide social initiative was built around the message of : Winners Always Stay in Control.

Consumers were encouraged to pledge their signatures to Join the Pact to Never Drink & Drive. 

 

I've given my pledge!  :D

 

Kenny & I have JOINED THE PACT – what about you? Never Drink and Drive

because Winners Always Stay in Control 

 

Getting my drinks at the bar. Johnnie Walker's wide variety of cocktails surely kept me coming back for more

 

Kenny, Hui Wen and I at our table

 

Cindy & I. She kept getting more and more cocktails even before I could finish mine! 

 

Ringo & I. Cheers!

 

After a while, I found out that I had missed DJ DIrect's set. He came all the way from the USA and I didn't get to watch him? ;(

Nnnnnnooooooooooooo! S'alright, I guess. Bet he got the partyball rolling pretty well 

 

DJane Geri on the decks

 

I managed to party to homegrown Malaysian spin artist DJane Geri.

One of our rising female DJs in the country elevated our moods with popular electro and hip hop tracks.

 

Spin it, babeh! :D

 

She posed for the camera when I snapped! :D

 

After DJane Geri's set, it was time for Taiwanese DJ RayRay.

She spun herself into the music scene when she was only 15 years old. Not bad! 

 

Today, she is one of Taiwan's most popular DJs

 

London-themed visuals flashed across the backdrop screen as she tore up the dancefloor

 

Tonight, she dropped a mix of old skool, funk, disco & electro tracks

 

Cindy, Jane, Ringo & I. We girls enjoyed DJ RayRay's set! 

 

Charles and I by the bar

 

Adjacent to my table was David, one of my friends from Penang, along with Sheena & Michelle :)

 

Buddy Kate came by my table to say hi! 

 

Eclectic stage dancers entertained us with their sexy dance routines

 

Bumped into more homies from Penang!

 

One of the reasons why I love attending parties back on my little island

– my schoolmates and the people I grew up with!

 

Jason and I with our drinks

 

Before I knew it, popular Taiwan-based emcee, MC Royal came over & made a toast with me and we chugged our smooth, fine Black Label whiskey.

He then challenged me to a three second slug of the bottle – to which, I had no problems with.

I upstaged his challenge at 5 seconds! :D

 

 

Over the years, slugging directly from the bottle has become quite a routine for me at parties.

I am notorious with my drinks like that. Heh.heh.heh. :P:P

 

 

But ever since I've joined the pact at the previous Johnnie Walker Black Label Circuit party, I only skull my drinks neat when I AM NOT THE DESIGNATED DRIVER.

Always stay safe on the road, peeps! 

 

Apart from hard liquor, I fancy my exotic cocktails as well. Extra points if I've not heard/tasted it before 

This time round, I was served British tea-inspired whiskey cocktails 

 

Johnnie Walker mixologist Josh Ivanovic showed me how it was intricately done

 

Fusing the powerful, bold flavours of Johnnie Walker Black Label with the sweet, aromatic taste of tea, it was the best of both worlds in my glass.

The method of preparation was complex and was served in style!

 

This gave me an excellent idea for a unique tea party. Teehee! :D

 

When the lighting changed into bright golden yellow beams and the visuals warped from Johnnie Walker Black Label montages to animated graphics of Johnnie Walker Gold Label 

 

Classy.

 

Johnnie Walker models paraded onstage with the Gold Label and sparklers fizzled & gleamed from the top of the bottles they had in their hands. 

This was probably the apex of the night! :D

 

 

Shiny golden confetti soon burst out and cloaked the arena with shimmery gold!

I was practically covered in them, my bag and drinks included LOL

 

See what I mean? haha! :D

 

Jane and I when the confetti showers were ongoing

 

Behold, the dazzling, extravagant Johnnie Walker Gold Label in all its glory

 

Hui Wen and I sipping on our Johnnie Walker Gold Labels

(Yes I know I look a tad buzzed & flushed by now. It was 2AM already mind you! LOL)

 

Leng Yein jiejie and I by the bar 

 

To save the best for last, headlining act DJ Benji Boko was flown in all the way from the United Kingdom to raise the temperature of the party even further!

He was dropping us some nasty, booming tracks from a decidedly British set list!

 

Instantly recognizable with his huge Afro & his monkey alter-ego,

Benji Boko certainly injected heaps of fun to party

 

Don't stop the music, Benji! 

 

httpv://youtu.be/-_oJsLMK234

Check out the video of the night! (You can spot me at 0.23secs & 1.56secs whee!)

 

We partied till the wee hours of the morning – which ended with a bang!

It was truly wonderful to have reunited and partied with so many of my long lost friends, friends from the industry and of course, made many new ones too 

 

Friends friends friends… everywhere! What's a party without good company of your buddies? :D

 

Thank you for a marvellous and a very "English" weekend! I enjoyed the party to the core 

See you at the next Johnnie Walker Black Circuit Lounge party!

I’ve got my hands on Princess Kate Middleton’s beauty secrets! Loving the new NIVEA Pure & Natural range

December 28, 2012 by thejessicat

 

 

Wanna know some beauty secrets used by British royalty? You never would have guessed.

A brand new skincare line was ready to hit the shelves of Malaysia – NIVEA's Pure & Natural range!

 

Nadia and I at the entrance

 

The theme was blue and white, held at a distinctively British garden-concept restaurant: Delicious Cafe.

It was a private function where a sneak preview of NIVEA's latest Pure & Natural line of products would be launched over a delightful fare of afternoon tea.

 

Delicious Cafe was turned into an enclave of various shades of blue with a hint of white. 

 

Bright turquoise bows were tied neatly behind every garden chair and each table was seen decorated with petals and garlands of daisies and gerbera blossoms! 

 

Cobalt blue miniature NIVEA decor hung from branches that sprouted from the pure white pillars of the restaurant.

 

I spotted the display of the products in question and hopped over to browse them for myself :)

 

Here's a closer look at NIVEA's new Pure & Natural range!

 

The launch of NIVEA's new line also saw a hot seat session with the top guns of NIVEA & Guardian pharmacy, as well as a step-by-step skincare demonstration of the new products 

 

Nadia Heng (Miss Malaysia 2010) explaining more about each product before she began the demonstration

 

This live presentation allowed guests to fully comprehend the benefits and all there is to know about using NIVEA's new Pure & Natural skincare range as well as how to use them. 

After all, wouldn't you like to be well-educated about a product before you slather it all over your face?

 

Step 1 : NIVEA Pure & Natural Cleansing Lotion

 

It was applied on a cotton pad and wiped gently on the skin of her face.

This cleansing lotion gently removes make-up and dirt effectively! 

 

Step 2 : NIVEA Pure & Natural Cleansing Toner

 

It was dabbed gently all over her face with bare hands.

This toner helps in tightening pores and revitalize skin.

 

Step 3 : NIVEA Pure & Natural Moisturizing Day Cream

 

The moisturizer was warmed between her fingers and gently spread and massaged upwards onto the face.

It ensures skin stays supple! Thin skin is also repaired with intense 24-hour moisture and freshness.

 

This rich moisturizer is the star product of NIVEA's new Pure & Natural range! 

 

Nadia explaining the purities and goodness of this star product

 

I've some really interesting news about NIVEA's new moisturizer to share – a royalty's beauty secret!

Recognize the glamorous lady on the left?

 

 

The Duchess of Cambridge, Princess Kate Middleton, was recently spotted buying NIVEA's new Moisturizing Day Cream at the Boots along Kings Road in London!

Amazing how she strikes a balance between designer luxury products and humble high street products for the masses  Good on ya, Kate! If it is fit for a princess' beauty regime, it is certainly fit for ours 

 

The beautiful models showcasing the complete set of NIVEA's new Pure & Natural range

 

The whole collection not only includes facial skincare, but also body lotion, cleansing wipes and deodorant!

All the products from the Pure & Natural range are free from preservatives and contains 95% natural origins such as Argan Oil, Aloe Vera & Chamomile 

 

MC Daphne Iking holding a Question & Answer session

 

We were then captivated with a fashion show by designer Dominique Chan's Princess collection of dresses and evening wear. How apt for the girly and princess theme of the event! 

Ready for some ravishing floral & elegant fashion designs?

 

 

The fashion show was held simultaneously when the afternoon tea-buffet was served.

Perfect timing! I was looking forward to it as I was beginning to feel slightly hungry by the time it did :)

 

I've always been a fan of Delicious light afternoon tea and desserts!

 

Bite-sized yet mouthwatering, these little goodies certainly leaves you wanting more!

 

Us guests were served a delectable assortment of desserts, pastries and finger food.

Tiramisu, macarons, cheesecakes, tapas food, miniature burgers, miniature pies and quiches 

 

With my fellow girlies, Ellie and Rosalyn at the event 

 

Another round of Dominique Chan's Princess collection was ready to be catwalked down the BLUE carpet.

This time round, the models not only paraded the dresses.

 

The six stunning ladies were each holding up one product from NIVEA's Pure & Natural range

 

 

I was totally smitten by their elegant, flowy and luxurious gowns which to me, embodied so much beauty and grace of the female figure. It was almost as if I was watching real princesses walk by! :kiss

Here are some close-ups I shot of the models once again.. this time, with the individual products.

 

NIVEA's Pure & Natural Cleansing Wipes

 

NIVEA's Pure & Natural Cleansing Lotion

 

NIVEA's Pure & Natural Cleansing Toner

 

NIVEA's Pure & Natural Moisturizing Day Cream

 

NIVEA's Pure & Natural Body Lotion

 

NIVEA's Pure & Natural Deodorant Roll-On

 

I managed to take a photo with the designer of the entire Princess collection!  

 

Dominique Chan and I

 

We were also entertained by a talented string ensemble quartet as evening began to approach

 

I enjoyed my afternoon of fashion, beauty and delicious afternoon tea-buffet today. Thanks NIVEA! 

To brighten my day even further, I was also given a bag of the full range of products in question

 

At the photowall just before I left the venue

 

Naturally, I couldn't wait to get home to try out all the products from NIVEA's Pure & Natural range!

 

Thanks to the demonstration earlier, I replicated the exact steps while using my new goodies ;)

 

I loved them all! They were really rich and I applied a generous amount of them all over my face and body, leaving it smelling so good and feeling so moisturized 

Despite loving the entire collection, I had three specific favorites – the Moisturizing Day Cream, the Body Lotion & the Deodorant Roll-On :D

 

Pretty sure I was feeling like a princess by the time I was done!

Photos + Videos! Peter Pan The Musical Gala premiere 2010 @ Sunway Lagoon Amphitheater

December 3, 2010 by thejessicat

 

Think of Christmas, think of snow,

Think of sleigh bells off you go!

 

So this was it. When I was extended an invite to Peter Pan : The Musical Gala, I couldn't be any more ecstatic as the Disney girl in me insisted I attend this!

The last time I ever watched Peter Pan was when I was… say, 6 years old or so?

 

 

And now, 15 years down the road, I am watching an adaptation of the early 1900 piece, 'Peter Pan – The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up', in a full-blown stage musical!

I arrived early at Sunway to avoid the massive jam! Had myself a cuppa double shot expresso mocha at the adjacent Starbucks while watching the cars roll in 🙂

 

 

Entering the vicinity of Sunway Lagoon, we were given an option of whether to jump aboard the buggy or take a 5 minute stroll to the Amphitheater itself. Clearly from the pictures above, no prizes for guessing which choice I made!

Heck, if I were wearing my trainers or flats I would choose the latter.

But since I was in heels, laziness got the better of me 😛 😛

 

 In the buggy! 🙂

Which was pretty fun and windy ride that reminds me of my Tioman Island trip

(zomg just remembered I haven't blogged about it yet!)

 

 

Arriving the entrance of Sunway Lagoon Amphitheater!

 You can see the amphitheater seats in the background!

Was kinda early so the crowd hasn't begun rolling in yet

 

 

Was ushered to my seat, yay for front rows! 🙂 The red zone.

Here's the very pretty set-up all ready for the show to kickstart at 8PM

 

 

Lights, camera, action!

Oh, and is that London's famous Big Ben clock tower? 🙂

 

By golly, it is!

 

Soon, more and more people began filling up the seats.

Spotted some of the usual faces coming in and also ushered to the same zone as I was 🙂

 

 Saved a seat for buddy Anis right beside me!

 

Bok was waiting beside me too before Serge took up the seat

 

Hmmm.. okay, waited quite long la actually. Heh 😛

It said 8PM on the ticket but that actually means 9PM acording to Malaysian timing LOL

 

 A sweaty and lethargic girl camwhoring while waiting. Faster begin already!! 😀 😀

Key brass chain-necklace by Soak Republic

 

 

Finally the whole amphitheater was fullhouse!

 

Okay, that was a whole lot of people. O__o

 

Chris Colby, the director of the entire production, then came forward to introduce himself and this musical to us.

Chris was really comical when he read out the formalities of "Datuk-datuk" and "Datin-datin" (titles to adress the local bigshots) and tried pronouncing other Malay words like "Majlis Bandaraya Subang" "Majlis Bandaraya Sri Petaling" (city councils) and the like.

 

Very good try nonetheless!!

 The man himself whose brainchild we were about to watch, Chris Colby!!

 

And it began with a blast!!

Ice blast, more of. It started snowing foam down the stage as a bunch of delightful dancers and main talents began their performance.

 

 

I vowed that when I set foot in the United Kingdom next year, Imma spend my first ever White Christmas there!

 

 

The musical got the ball rolling with a very popular Christmas song, 'Sleigh Ride'.

Just hear those sleigh bells jingle-ing~
Ring ting tingle-ing too~
Come on, it's lovely weather~
For a sleigh ride together with you~



 

Outside the snow is falling~
And friends are calling "You Hoo"~
Come on, it's lovely weather~
For a sleigh ride together with you!

 

 

That's one of my fave Christmas songs ever 🙂

 

 

Wendy Darling, the co-star looked really beautiful and chirpy on stage!

 Just like how she was portrayed in Disney's version of Wendy 🙂

 

 

If I recall correctly, there were altogether more than 10 songs sang and danced to!

 

 

The famous London West End theater professional actors and actresses did a fabulous job dancing, twirling, hopping, skipping and singing to the music! Trust me, I know exactly how tiring it is.

I've been in a theater production several years back myself and hell yes, all the rehearsing and practice sessions drained the life of me 🙁

 

 

Wendy was having fun immersed in her colourful imagination of music, laughter and joy when Mr. Darling knocked on the door.

Oh no! It's father!

 

 

 

Mr. Darling was portrayed as the strict and stern father figure, taking no nonsense from Wendy as she tells her stories of fairies, the Lost Boys and a boy who never grew up

He brushed her account of seeing a boy standing by her window as a figment of an imagination and tucked her into bed.

 

Wendy even showed her father Peter Pan's shadow much to his disbelief

 

On a side note: Poor thing! Like SERIOUSLY? Which father won't be alarmed when there is a MALE standing at his DAUGHTER'S window AT NIGHT?

Ya know, if my dad ever did that to me in real life I'd probably ask him, aren't you worried that this boy will kidnap and rape me or something? Pfftt.

 

 

Ok reality check over 😛 Back to Neverland please!

 

 

 

So the sad Wendy obviously not being able to sleep, still harboured wishful thinking about Peter Pan and the Lost Boys.

She talked to her dog, Nana – of which was also portrayed excellently!

 

Walt Disney's image of Nana

 

It was also pretty hilarious to think that there was actually a person inside a furry St. Bernard costume!

The recorded barking sound was played in sync with the person inside acting all frisky and replicated any doggy-antics 🙂

 

 

Hi Nana!! 🙂 🙂

 

Peter Pan then came into the scene, standing by Wendy's window ledge with his hands on his hips.

He was looking for his shadow that he left behind; which I find rather strange, to have a shadow detached from a person. 😀

Well, it has been this way since the 1915 version!

 

Wendy then reattaches Peter Pan's shadow by sewing it back on his body (!!!!)

 

As shown from the ancient illustration below

 

After Wendy finished putting it all back, the very eggcited Peter Pan calls out his signature cock-a-doodle-doo!

 

 

Peter then begins to adjourn home and asks Wendy to come along with him.

But.. how?

 

FLY, OF COURSE!

All it takes is faith and trust, and just a little bit of pixie dust 🙂

 

But… where does Peter Pan live? Where on earth is Neverland?

You don't need no GPS nor Google Maps because…

 

… "it's just the 2nd star to the right, and straight on 'till morning!" 🙂 🙂

 

How nice if I were to tell my friends where I live and easily go "It's just the 2nd house to the right and straight on 'till you see a 7-11!"

*envisions self pointing to a far distance*

 

So what are you waiting for, Wendy?

Won't you fly with me? 🙂

 

Up up up they go to Neverland!

 

Question is, what happened to Wendy's 2 other brothers, John and Michael?

Maybe they just dissolved into thin air or disintegrated into pixie dust for unknown reasons. Hmm… Just kidding!

 

We can fly! We can fly! We can fly!

 

Yes you can fly. Now, here's a video 🙂

 

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eioff6yz_VI

Thanks to Anis for lending me her camera! xoxo

 

 

Random shot of the cocky and mischievous Peter Pan amongst the giant mushrooms 🙂

 

This is Mr. Smee! 🙂 Captain Hook's pirate sidekick

He went "HIYA FELLAS!" and we all had to go "HIYA SMEEEEEE!!"

 

Smee steering Hook's ship!

Another dance session and a pretty cool pirate-ish song played 🙂

 

 

 So now we have all the pirates…

 

 

…but where's Captain Hook himself?

 

 

I wonder. Come on out, Hook! Arrrrr!!!!

 

 

Suddenly, a loud thunderous cackle reverberated through the amphitheater and spotlights were on Captain Hook at the very same entrance we used to come in! The crowd applauded with excitement.

 

 

This sinister character was bellowing his dramatic, evil laughter upon his appearance.

Oooh. I'm so scared.. but could I borrow your hook to hang my laundry? 😛 😛

 

 

He was pretty gung-ho, cruel and nasty.

Very much what I remember of Captain Hook from my younger days!

 

 

He hears of this Wendy person Peter Pan brought to Neverland, and hatched this diabolical plan to kidnap her and make her their mother instead of Pan's.

But why would you need to kidnap young girls and make her your mother, Hook? You should be ashamed!

 

Take a look at yourself, you fully grown man! *wags accusing finger* 😛 😛


But regardless of whatever logic there is, his minions agreed in unison with his plan.

 

Hurrah!!! We're gonna kidnap Wendy!

 

And they did.

 

Oh but wait, take a close look at Captain Hook's facial expression!!!

 

Bwahahaha. I couldn't stop laughing. 😛 😛

 

So he went on and on threatening Wendy but OH NO!

 

Hold it just a sec – what's that sound I hear?

Ticking? Tick tock tick tock goes the clock

 

The frightened Hook was so alarmed that he summoned Smee to be on the lookout for the crocodile.

 

Why is Hook so afraid of crocs?

If you didn't know, you sure don't know your Disney well! 😛 😛 Go find out! 😀

 

Hellllooooo crocodile!

 

There was also a person inside the croc outfit which I presume *could* be the same person playing Nana? Hehe. And I don't know if it's of any coincidence but Crocs Malaysia happens to be one of the sponsors of this musical! 🙂 🙂

 


It was also pretty silly and hilarious watching a crocodile standing and walking on 2 feet, shaking hands with Tiger Lily and her red Indian clan!

I remember laughing so hard at the crocodile's antics! 😀 hahaaha

 

Yay Wendy is rescued!!

*claps*

 

Wendy kinda has this crush on Peter which is fairly obvious in Disney's cartoon as also in this musical adaptation.


Hey woman, take it from me. He just wants you to babysit him and the Lost Boys so don't get your infatuation nor hopes too high up! 😛

After all, he's the boy that never grows up…

 

and is a carefree and free-spirited soul.

What will happen when you're all old, wrinkly and menopausal when he's still swiftly flying around?

 

Ain't gonna work out.

 

Peter Pan and the Lost Boys! 🙂

 

I love how they were frolicking with each other telling each other bedtime stories and jokes

 

Oh, and if any of you were wondering where Tinkerbell was….

She was there! She was there with us during the musical too!

 

 

Just… well.. in a form of a bright ray of yellow/green light and her signature tinker-sounds. Because obviously, no one was small enough to play her – not even a child. Look, she's only slightly bigger than a keyhole!

But! Something bad happened to her. Tinkerbell was dying and the only way to save her was to believe in fairies (!!!) O_o

 

Come on! We need everybody! Even the moms and dads out there!

You have to believe! Clap your hands so she can hear you!

 

So yeah, we all clapped as hard as we could.

And she was alive again! Yay. Heh. Actually, I watched this scene in Disney's version too where Tinkerbell's life was coming to an end because people didn't believe her existence. LOL. No comments 😛

 

There was a scene where the malicious Captain Hook kidnapped Tiger Lily too!

Good lord, can you stop kidnapping young girls already? hahaaha 😛

 

He tied her to a rock

 

and Peter Pan our hero for the night, came to her rescue!!! 🙂

They engaged in a swashbuckling swordfight.


Tiger Lily was saved and everyone lived happily ever after. The end.

*Narrator takes a sip of water*

 

All's well, ends well! 🙂 🙂

 

Bye everybody! ;(

 

More and more Christmas songs filled the amphitheater as the entire cast came forward for their last song and dance.

 

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gpCl4gjq1xA

 

And guess what!? It was snowing again! 🙂 🙂

 

 

This time, it was a blizzard! 😀

It snowed not just onstage but ALL OVER US TOO!

 

 

Then it got rather chilly and all of us had "snow" foam on our heads and bodies

 

Don't know why you can't see it on me but there… look at the picture below!

 

The man sitting in fronta me had mega-dandruff on his head! 😛

LOL I jest! It was the "snow" foam. Lots and lots of them on his shoulders too

 

 

I must say, that I had a fantastic time.

Not many people would know how to appreciate musicals but if you happen to be a fan of stageplay or were to be (or have been) in the theatrical scene, you would be able to judge this abridged version as a splendid one.

All I can say is, loosen up, sit back, relax and enjoy the magic of this show.

 

 

Peter Pan : The Musical Gala will be shown every single day (except Tuesday) from the 26th November 2010 until the 2nd January 2011.

5.30PM on weekdays + Sunday and an extra 8PM one on Fridays and Saturdays!

Adult tickets range from RM60-Rm140 while tickets for children range from RM40-RM100.

To purchase your ticket, call 03-5639000 or visit www.sunwaylagoon.com for more

 

Trust me, it will leave you enchanted 🙂

 

Here's the whole cast posing for a group photograph! 🙂

 

I was kinda heartbroken when Adrian Soo -CEO of Sunway Lagoon- initially announced that only the children were allowed to take photos with them. Like… WHAAAIII???? I thought we were children too, somewhere deep down inside!

What happened to never growing up in Neverland?

 

I was so sad that I thought this was the closest I could ever get to them in a photo

 

But I was wrong!! After the stampede of children had subsided, Adrian then invited the media up onstage for a very own up-close-and-personal session with the whole cast, crew, producers and directors 🙂

Thank goodness I didn't leave yet!

 

Wendy is so beautiful in real life and was indeed a darling! 🙂

 

The guy with the amazing voice plays the adorable Peter Pan!

He was so gracious, very sweet and informative too when I asked him a few questions 🙂

 

Also, I got to take pictures with the Director and the Dance Choreographer themselves!

 

The men you see flanking me are the masterminds of this superb musical! 🙂

Great job

 

Had a lil chat session with them and I was told that this entire musical took a total of only 3 weeks at most to be rehearsed. Long days and long nights, but it was sure worth it! 🙂

They also shared with me that the main cast had been working with them for many stageplays already and that auditions were held right here in Sunway Lagoon itself for the rest of the cast, especially the dancers!

 

Took some time camwhoring with the stage props and setting too 😛

 

Yes I'm getting ready for Christmas already… presents anyone? 😀 😀

 

The overgrown child with the overgrown mushrooms 😛

 

More overgrown children!

 

Girls just love to have fun, no? 😀 😀

Just think of a wonderful thought, any merry little thought… and we'll be able to fly, right?

 

Well at least that's what Peter Pan told us!

Whee! Feeling like a little girl again at Peter Pan : The Musical Gala premiere

Hey hey! 🙂

If you've been following my tweets you would have already known that I was in Sunway Lagoon Amphitheater just a few days ago to witness Peter Pan The Musical. Needless to say, I enjoyed myself so very much!

Courtesy of Nuffnang, I was extended an invitation to catch this show on the very first day itself 🙂

 

It was a spectacular "magical" show with lotsa swashbuckling action that lasted for slightly over an hour

 

When I was browsing through the photographs I shot from this event and even after filtering them all, it STILL totaled up to 100++!

Ohnoes.

Looks like imma have to take some time -probably a day or two- as I have to process them all first

 

But no worries!

Here are a few for you dearies to see first 🙂

 

The next post will be a massive one, with over 100 pictures and a video to boot

I've so much to tell you guys all about it!

 

Watching it made me feel like a little girl all over again. Singin' along to the chirpy songs, laughing at silly antics, participating in whatever the characters told the audience to do.. and more!

 

T'was an amazing show setting in the Christmas mood already 🙂 🙂

 

Oh and the best part was… SNOW :D:D

It was snowing during a few parts of the snow and it did get a tad chilly at some point!

 

I got to take pictures with the cast hailing from London's famous West End theater district! They were such a friendly bunch to talk to.

Stay tuned, aight? Can't wait to show you too! Loves

 

 

Anything and everything Disney never fails to keep

the little girl in me a very happy one indeed!
