MAMA MIA






As per the above photo, I went to watch MAMA MIA yesterday and paid a good money for it too. As you would notice, we sat at the Grand Circle, which was pretty good seat. We managed to get the tickets after they actually decided to have additional show. If you look closely, you would see that (where the STAR logo is), its stated that the show was to run until 1st Jan 2009. Due to overwhelming response, a few additional shows were added.

We had a surprise that day, not only seated two rows below us more towards the middle of the hall, sat our PM - Pak Lah. Some people were so blur, they didn't even know that was that PM; my friends included. They sat very weirdly, all the men on one side and the ladies on the other. It was a pleasant surprise rite? further to day, I have to say they were only like 5 mins late, e.g 3:05pm which is by the standards of dignitires is already very very good. :D

After all the hoo haa of PM - Pak Lah- whispering.... came the actual annoucement welcoming PM and some other folks, not that i can remember their name :D

But not sure why they wort last nite, when it wasn't really the nite show we watched, it was the matinee show.

And Surprise Surprise, this boom thru the sound system " Kindly Stand for the National Anthem". Not sure if they played it for all the shows or just this one coz the PM was there. But really tho' this is a real added bonus :D

How as the show? Errr It was a OK. Kinda slow on some scenes. The bests ones for me were the last performance and the ancore... where the full blown dance was performed and so lively and the music was excellent.

p/s this was the london production , hence in the beginning some of the actors' accent were so strong, I didn't get jack shit... hehehe.
