*smiles* juz came home from the singapore indoor stadium after 2hrs of enchantment. NOTRE DAME DE PARIS is absolutely fantastic! no wonder it entered the Guinness World Record. although the entire play was based in french, becoz their acting were so fabulous, you cud actually feel and understand emotionally what the actors and actresses are singing. haha. of coz, at the sides of the stage, there are always the aid of wad we wud call Subtitles.
but the whole play is truly amazing and ooo, the singing was whoa! haha...their singing was something unheard of in singapore. there was a certain unique quality in their voice and now i understand why critics told the cast of "The Forbidden City" that if they intend to bring their play to England, they have A LOT of work to improve on. sigh.
do u know tt at the end of the whole play, there was a call for encore and this very cute guy, one of the main characters who starred as a corrupted officer, actually came up and sang, WITHOUT the accompany of the music, the opening song of that play...ALONE! and his voice hit all the correct keys and his tune was flawless. haha.
in the opening act, my mom and i were alr. blown away by the voices and acrobatic stunts and all the dramatic action. haha and i might as well mentioned that we both cried when esmeralda died in the arms of Quasimodo. whee! i am so glad i went for the play. whooohooo! woots!
