GIVEAWAY: 10 VIP passes to the Hotlink CNY Concert 2014! Catch Taiwanese Hip Hop act Da Mouth & bombshell DJ Tenashar LIVE in Malaysia

February 7, 2014 by thejessicat

 

What’s happening this Valentine’s weekend?

For all you overzealous people who loves planning in advance, here’s an idea. Bring your other half for a very different Valentine’s celebration!

Or if you’re a lonely, single heart (like I am now LOL) you can round up your mad hatter group of friends and partymates to rock the dance floor with you – VIP style! 

 

 

Maxis is throwing this concert in conjunction with their Chinese New Year festivities

and to celebrate their launch of 4G – now available for prepaid users! Wink

 

Hailing all the way from Taiwan, award winning Hip Hop act Da Mouth will make their way to our Malaysian shores this February.

The four-piece band comprises rapper MC40, DJ Chung Hua, and their male & female vocalists Harry and Aisa (Japanese!), respectively.

 

 

This will be my first time watching Da Mouth perform live.

Pretty keen to check out what they’re made of on stage, as they’re popularly dubbed as Asia’s very own version of The Black Eyed Peas!

 

 

 

The second main act comes from our brethren across the causeway – Singapore!

Fusing a galaxy of EDM to her belt from electro, trance, progressive to big room house, DJ Tenashar’s raging stamina and musical sass has shone dynamically.

With energy to spark any party and epic excitement from her thousands of fans, the Singaporean starlet will turn any dance floor she helms into a party scene.

 

Yup…. no surprise. Am I right, lads? Tongue Out

 

She’s also been voted as World #87 on DJ Mag’s Top 100 DJs in the world.

 

Check out the video trailer of what to expect when you catch Da Mouth and DJ Tenashar live in concert!

 

 

Looks pretty fun! I honestly can’t wait to rave to DJ Tenashar’s set and to check out the much-talked about Da Mouth for the first time.

They’re not the only artistes performing for us, by the way.

 

Model-turned-DJ Leng Yein and I at a recent event.

Good on you jie! Nail the dance floor, yeah? x

 

Supporting acts for the show will be 3 local female DJs – DJ Leng Yein, DJ Nikki and DJ Jerryca Misty. Let’s hope they all rock my Saturday night. Laughing

After all… it’s the weekend of Valentine’s and for the first time, I don’t have anyone to rock it for me LOL.

So they better do a good job! Big Smile

I came. I raved. I loved. Swedish House Mafia : ‘One Last Tour’ LIVE in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia @ Sunway Lagoon Surf Beach

January 22, 2013 by thejessicat

 

 


Last Friday was a night of mayhem! Actually, my whole weekend was pretty much a radical one.

But wait, let's talk about Friday first, hey?

 

Just one look and it's no guessing who they are!

 

As we all know and having also said in this post, our favourite EDM juggernaut trio Swedish House Mafia have decided to go their separate ways to concentrate on their solo careers. 

Embarking on a farewell around the world to personally bid their fans a heart-warming goodbye, they have, among a few other countries, chosen Malaysia to perform for one last time at their aptly named, One Last Tour. 

 

Thanks for the ticket, XPAX! I was all geared up and excited to go already! 

 

I'm sure you can tell. I was impatiently bounding up and down while waiting for some friends!

 

We got there pretty early, just before 9PM. 

It was a long walk towards the Surf Beach, as though hyping us up all month isn't enough already!

 

En route to the Surf Beach!

 

We were getting closer and closer to the party zone

 

Took some photos with the mascots of Greyhound!

 

Some photos with the fellow partymates. 

I figured we ought to grab a few shots first before we all disappeared into the crowd so here they some of them!

 

 

Remember this post I wrote which included something about the death of my friend, Elizabeth? 

She clearly didn't make it for this Swedish House Mafia's gig that she wanted to attend so badly. So, her friends and family alike gathered in her name tonight and had it all planned to make this her little tribute.

 

Some of the heart-shaped helium balloons they had brought along to release into the night sky

the moment her favourite song 'Don't You Worry Child' came up. 

 

Are we ready to see Swedish House Mafia LIVE before us for the first and last time?

 

And so, after all the opening acts, DJ Nikki, Mr. Fluff and DJ Eclipse (Singapore), had finished their set, Swedish House Mafia made their grand appearance half an hour before their scheduled time at 9.30PM sharp.

 

Steve Angello, Sebastian Ingrosso and Axwell opened their two-hour set with 'We Came, We Raved, We Loved'

 

Their opening drove us on high suspense with drumming bass and lightplay on the white veil, before finally dropping those curtains to unveil our favorite Swedish progressive house trio. 

 

 

The laser show was nothing short of amazing! 

Laser beams comprising a psychedelic fusion of colours shone haphazardly into the sky and back throughout their set.

 

Here are the blue and green ones

 

Some of the skinnier laser streaks

 

They had lots of LED animation in the background too. I liked the skull best!

 

The boys playing one of my favourite songs, 'Antidote' for us!

Anyone knows what those Japanese words say? 

 

 

They performed a powerful two-hour set for us.

A perfect blend of remixes and various original tracks as individuals and from their two albums (as Swedish House Mafia), Until One and Until Now.

 

They climbed onto the DJ console to rave with us!

 


In the first half of their set, they performed 'Nothing But Love' by Axwell, 'KNAS', 'Lights' and 'Show Me Love' by Steve Angello, a remix of 'Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger' by Kanye West, 'The Island' by Pendulum, and their original singles 'Leave the World Behind', 'Calling (Lose My Mind), 'Greyhound' and 'The Island'. 

 

Sebastian Ingrosso playing LIVE drums while 'Resurrection' played

 

Can you spot me in this rowdy crowd? 

 

"It's good to be here together for the first time with you in Malaysia.

What a beautiful place! Are you having a good time?"

 

 

As if things couldn't turn up any higher, Swedish House Mafia began playing a remix of Coldplay's 'Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall' and surprised us with a massive thank you to our country, Malaysia, for hosting them and their One Last Tour here.

 

What's behind the blast of sparks?

 

Ta-daa! It's our very own Malaysian flag, the Jalur Gemilang!

 

The boys began waving it in the air throughout that track

 

That moment itself was truly a wondrous sight.

Needless to say, patriotism ignited within me and I felt a certain sense of pride for my country all over again.

 

Thousands and thousands of Malaysians screamed in unison

 

Another touching, poignant moment for some of us was when the progressive powerhouses began playing the beautiful track, 'Don't You Worry Child', the forth single off their latest album, Until Now.

Yes, Elizabeth…it's time.

 

This is for you, Eli.

 

Letting go a pink heart-shaped helium balloon with the words

'RIP Elizabeth with ♥, you're heaven sent'

 

 

What really made me burst into tears while singing along to 'Don't You Worry Child' was when that ONE pink balloon didn't make its way up into the sky like the rest of the balloons, but floated directly to Swedish House Mafia during this song.

It was almost as if Eli wanted to be closer to her idols and get the best view of all of her friends gathering there on her behalf. 

 

Steve Angello releasing her into the sky

 

Even after Steve Angello caught that pink balloon, held it and let it go into the sky again, that pink balloon wasn't ready to leave us all just yet. Guess she still wanted to enjoy herself partying with us all and Swedish House Mafia.

 

The pink balloon refused to go anywhere and stayed on top of the DJ console.

 

I recall crying like an emotional wreck. Dang! During a rave? That's a first! 

Look at my mascara all smeared. Argh!

 

 

Anyway, I soon cheered up again when Swedish House Mafia continued taking the party to the next level with harder, progressive tracks in the second half of their set.

Here's a video I made encapsulating my night. 

 

httpv://youtu.be/rcOC5JGu9eM

Enjoy! I took a while to make this :D

 

Make sure you watch till the end to catch them performing all their best songs, fireworks blasting, amazing pyrotechnics (fire), crazy laser shows, helium balloons floating in the air and ONE very special pink heart-shaped helium balloon that floated its way directly to Swedish House Mafia when they were performing.

 

 

More laser lights shot through the party, fireworks burst out at the stage and into the sky!

 

 

The show came complete with pyrotechnics, descending sparks of fire and combustions of flame shots in perfect sync with the heavy beats and bass drops too. 

 

The blue and yellow flames literally turned up the heat where I was standing!

 

 

The second half of their set saw them dropping tracks like 'Sweet Disposition' by The Temper Trap, 'Sunrise' by The Aston Shuffle, 'Resurrection' by Michael Calfan, Axwell's remix of 'In My Mind' by Ivan Gough as well as their originals, 'Miami 2Ibiza', 'One (Your Name)', 'Save the World' and yes, again..'Don't You Worry Child'.

 

 

An estimated number of more than 22,000 fans were given a spectacular one last show tonight.

We sang along, jumped, danced and partied long and hard despite the sporadic downpour.


Yup, no amount of rain can dampen our spirits.

Certainly not in the name of Swedish House Mafia.

 

Dear Angello, Ingrosso and Axwell, are you proud of us? 

 

And thanks for the confetti burst.

 

I had to spend a while getting all the coloured paper off me as I was soaked to the core.

The paper somehow was a chore to peel out LOL

 

 

Thank you for choosing Malaysia as one of the few countries to perform your One Last Tour.

If there ever was another chance to party and rave with you boys – even in the rain – I would do it all over again. The show was marvellous, you guys did not disappoint, not even one bit! 

 

Ending the night with a blast!

 

I wish you well in your solo careers! 

A possible collaboration or reunion in the future would be nice. Just saying. Heh. Heh. Heh.

 

Goodbye Swedish House Mafia, I love you! :kiss

Swedish House Mafia is coming to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia for their ONE LAST TOUR!

January 7, 2013 by thejessicat

 

 

 

When recurrent rumours of Swedish House Mafia's 'One Last Tour' concert LIVE in Malaysia were proven true and confirmed to be held in early January 2013,  I was over the moon! 

The world's biggest electronica trio will be performing for us in Malaysia for the very first time (and the last!)

 

 

These incredibly talented progressive-house DJs and producers from Sweden has announced that they will making their final tour around the world as a way of saying goodbye before disbanding and going their separate ways.

It must be our lucky day! Malaysia was one of the chosen countries! 

 


Being a massive fan of Electronic Dance Music (EDM) and one who often blog about gigs, raves and parties revolving around the EDM scene, I absolutely cannot wait to give them the biggest send-off of their lives at the biggest farewell tour in concert history! 

 

The boys behind Swedish House Mafia – Sebastian Ingrosso, Axwell & Steve Angello 

 

During the countdown launch of the confirmed gig, something out of the ordinary happened.

Doesn't this remind you of the Bat signal shone into the sky? :D

 

Swedish House Mafia logo was seen on KL Tower that night! 

 

No better way to kick off the year's entertainment scene than a mind-blowing rave party, ey?

Thank you so much XPAX, for bringing them down to Malaysia 

 

 

I'm certain you've put a big, wide smile on thousands of fellow EDM fans across Malaysia (and even those in the neighbouring regions!) for giving us the chance to say our last goodbyes!

 

Here are the concert details again, if you couldn't read the small text on the poster.

Pitbull Asia Tour 2011 was awesome! Mr. Worldwide LIVE in Malaysia @ Sunway Lagoon Surf Beach

January 5, 2012 by thejessicat

 

T'was a stormy night – so much so that it flooded the front of Sunway Lagoon Surf Beach and its vicinity

Pitbull took to the Malaysian stage yet again for his Asia Tour 2011. This marks the 2nd time I've attended his gig; watching him live in concert! He's such a performer, in every sense of the word!


The 1st time I've watched him was at his 12hour LIVE with Chivalry gig held early last year.

 

And this time, Pitbull is back again hurrah!

 

I arrived there slightly late due to some complications but fortunately, I was just in time for Pitbull's gig

The moment I entered the surf beach, I could hear "HELLLLLOOOO MALAYSIAAAAA!!"

 

He was just as sharply dressed as I'd imagine him to be again

 

Mr. Worldwide blasted the crowd to Planet Pit alright!

 

His stage performance was so energetic!

 

Pitbull was interacting non-stop with his guitarist, drummer, bassist, DJs

 

And the crowd, most definitely

 

The stage setup was stellar! 3D visuals, laser lightings and whatnot were being projected onto the backdrop which ensured a very smooth synchronization with the live music booming from the speakers.

 

 

The visuals kept changing ever so often, but the spotlight remained on our star of the night, Pitbull 😀

His suave nature on-stage and heavy Spanish accent kept his female fans swooning the night away

 

it's International Love, baby!

 

Pitbull really knew how to get his screaming fans in a frenzy.

 

He belted out his latest singles like 'International Love', 'Give me Everything', 'Rain over Me' and 'Hey Baby (Drop it to the Floor) from Planet Pit as well as popular favorites from Rebelution like 'Shut it Down', 'I Know You Want Me', 'Hotel Room Service' and 'Krazy'.

 

 

I started jumping and letting my hair down when he made us JUMP UP, LET'S GET KRAZY! 

 

MOVE MOVE, SHAKE SHAKE, NOW DROP!

 

 

But that's not all, this talented Cuban-American rapper-singer-songwriter-producer injected the crowd with some Latino magic! I could remember him serenading us with his songs sung in Spanish and boogeying it down at his previous concert as well.

 

 
I could tell he really stays true to his roots and enjoys sharing a bit of his culture to us 

 

Pitbull hitting up some salsa, cha-cha-ca, Miami bass and merengue Latin American dance!

 

 

He then took his coat off – I couldn't quite imagine how he was relentlessly performing whilst sweating buckets underneath thick layers of clothing!

The crowd (myself included) was perspiring by the minute despite being in an open-aired area, let alone Pitbull in that heatwave of a stage. 

 

Sweat towel needed after all that dancing and entertaining!

 

Keep singing with the towel slung around his shoulder!

 

I'll carry my trusty sweat towel all around stage with me!

 

For the show must go on!

 

The previous concert saw Pitbull stripping down to only his white singlet and silvery-grey pair of slacks.

But this time round, he only removed his coat and unbuttoned his black shirt.

 

All eyes on you, Pitbull!

 

 

His 2 hour set ended pretty quickly though 🙁

When he thanked us for having him and performed his last song, I was like, "ALREADY?"

 

 

A true performer makes you breeze through his performance yearning for more all through till the end of the gig.

Pitbull, has undeniably proven his worth to us again as he came back up on stage after a bellowing encore from us! 

 

Now, that's satisfaction brought to you by Pitbull, the man himself ;)

Thank you for an amazing show and for making Malaysia one of your stops during this Asia Tour 2011!

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.

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!
