As ive mentioned b4, i attended this musical 'Drunk Before Dawn' as put up by SIB (Sidang Injil Borneo) in collaboration with ISO (Isaac Symphony Orchestra), and i must tell you guys, heads bowed to the producer, it was a breathtaking experience...
Rey (clarinetist) and Ed (cellist) have had the opportunity to play in the orchestra (they are both my Uni frens..)...Gosh, they really played WELL (they didnt buy me to write this..), i dunno if i was too immersed in the musical or wat, dat when she told me she squeaked, i was like: you did?
All in all, the musical was a HUGE success, the production was Awesome, Splendid, kewl, and whatever descriptions u can think of...I was having the dilemma of whether focusing to the orchestra or to the cast, but really, the cast DID SWELL too....their vocals, it was almost FLAWLESS...i like particularly Lea's, her mother's, and her sister, Mina's...
There was this really funny scene too, after the intermission, the cast brought out this really typical Chinese act...and they acted exactly like it...fantastic..I cant believe it when Rey told me the cast are all SIB members, to think of so many talented actors/actresses under one Church...God's grace is Undeniable...Amen?
One note on the orchestra, these ppl (some of 'em non SIB members) got together to produce an eminent masterpiece...The score was magnificent, i wouldnt say it'd be as good as John William's, but it is definitely a world class production...I enjoyed listening to the 1st violin, the oboe and the keyboard alot...not to mention of coz, clarinet and cello (my sincere tribute to rey&Ed)...And as for the lyrics of the musical, it does move me alot, i would be surprised if someone wasnt...
I will not relate the story of the musical, but i can tell you it is Genuine, and it's about God's love and work...He will nv forsake us...didnt He create us in the 1st place? And if you think you came from Monkey (the theory of human evolution), u can continue to think that way, i aint no monkey, im a child of God...
I was a lil' taken aback knowing that the musical will only run for three days, gosh, so many ppl could have have the chance of knowing the gospel through this superb musical...but i heard they are gonna bring the production over to other places....good for them!
On an unrelated occasion, i went to Imax theatre yesterday to watch Polar Express...Though this wasnt my 1st Imax experience, i enjoyed the show alot, PE was made solely to bringout the 3D effect...and i would definitely pay more to watch any movies on Imax screen, coz it is entirely a whole new experience, or if i should say, WAY better than conventional 2D screen...
I have three more days interning, and im currently struggling to put my reports together...(thanks to my procrastinating nature..)...Later my manager is gonna bring her entire team out for luncheon, apparently is for ME....i cant tell u how flattered i am of such gesture...why, im merely a trainee here, and they're having a farewell for me? I really Luv this ppl...
Less than two weeks to Christmas....May the Christmas Spirit be in all of us.... :)
