Yayness, I am feeling much better already, thanks to some Febs tablets, many good meals, enough sleep, and a can of Tiger Beer Classic...
My Hari Raya holiday was mostly spent rehearsing for a new show, which is...

A Peranakan musical extravaganza is coming to The Victoria Theatre in mid-January 2006!
It is a 90-minute Peranakan musical variety show to entertain audiences from ages 6 to 96!
A musical for everyone! The musical will be presented in English as it aims to reach out to
Peranakans, non-Peranakans alike & the younger generation.
It has all the elements for a great show with comedy, a fashion show,
great music, a ‘live’ band, lots of dancing, audience interaction, a strong cast
and even a Peranakan wedding presentation done in 12 minutes!
It tells about how life comes around in full-circle; what goes around comes around,
how to live wisely, kindly, be supportive & more compassionate to our fellow-men.
In short, we must live our life to its fullest and happiest!
A celebration of life, the Peranakan way!
The musical will feature our ‘anak wayang’ (actors) such as
Babas - Tony Quek, Alvin Oon, Francis Hogan, Richard Chia, Alvin Yapp
with stage personalities like Edric Hsu & Chermaine Ang.
Our Golden Girlz of Katong - Nyonyas Jessie Cheang, Alicia Ang, Irene Ong,
