Review:
We had the pleasure of being invited for this delicious showcase.
It was an amazing look as the history and diverstiy of the Malaysia Theatre and Musical scene. Brought back memories of play staged long time ago.
The performers had such a wide ranging repetoire to sign and pulled it off superbly. The mix of newcomers like Tony Eusoff, Alex Koh and Chee Sek Thim.. had us all amazed. The ladies did well with the comeback of Ida and Sukania.. Shanon Shah stood out as well with his perfect piano play.. All in all.. a well deserving Encore!.. Go watch it!
