Tick Tock

It is now 4.00 pm and in 4 and a half hours we are 'ON' for Opening Night, our first, and finally it's SHOW TIME.

I am very excited, and I'm sure everyone else is. We received our Program Books yesterday, breaking the tradition.

Many VIPs is expected to come to our opening tonight including our PM and some royalties, and Ismail's wife and family.

Good luck guys, and as Tony and Nick would say before every dress rehearsal.." Break a Leg!".

Black Out

Black...

That is all we saw for the last 10 minutes of tonight's full dress rehearsal run. There was a blackout at klpac.. which ended up with us ending the rehearsal time bit earlier. Whoopee and Baddie...

You know when you are on stage... you sometimes take things for granted. We know the director will see to us all looking right.. we know the stage managers will keep everything in check... the tech people will do their best with the sound, stage set, and the lighting... Everything is under control by someone.

But we never into account what could possibly happen if say something went beyond our control. Like today...

However... it doens't matter... the show has to go on! And that it did...
Even still, we all pray it does NOT EVER GET A BLACKOUT!!!

Hot Off The Press

With opening night getting closer and closer, our two main leads Tisha and Malik have been going around to TV stations and begging to be featured so that they can promote the show. Thankfully, two breakfast shows felt pity on them and allowed them on their show. Click on the two links below to see their interviews....
