 Frozen Angels - a really good play. I'm sure many of you have heard already but I cried about four times during the performance :) Really touching. Basically, the plot revolved around three different stories, based on how stem cells could affect future relationships. There was an old geezer who makes life difficult for everyone and his daughter went away; and now all he wants is for her to come back. Subtly intertwined is the record of filipino maids taking care of him and their own families and dreams. There's a pair of 'young' college sweethearts who stayed together til they were 200, but all their friends and family were deceased. A bangladesh worker and his china immigrant affair brings about complex relationships as well. I enjoyed the post-show dialogue session afterward, though the director Alvin Tan wasn't there, the man co in charge of the fringe festival gave enriching answers to the questions posed by the audience. Anyway, the filmmaker Loo Zihan explained the effects utilised as well, so that helped in my understanding and made my observations more in-depth, as what Mr A had requested us to look out for. By the way, guess how many people were in the cast? ..... Two! Yes, two. Najib (we've been seeing him repeatedly since Sec 1 but he never fails to amaze us time and time again) and Siti. The latter is very expressive; I haven't seen her acting before but this first impression really made an impact on me. I have a feeling she'll get really far in life :) or at least touch many people with her skill. Whats more, they acted multiple scenes! Sometimes even having to change roles ON stage. It's a really big feat that can only be the beautiful result of professional acting. So applause and encores for them! Oh going back to the part about the post-show dialogue, it really opened many thinking/reflective doors for me. What would eternity be like? I personally don't see the need to live longer on earth.. God awaits :) but even so. "Live your life like there is no afterlife; and you will have no regrets." one of the things I learnt today. Also, the contrasting ideas that came out - i didn't really realise them until a attentive member of the audience voiced it out. That in the presence of absence, people miss them more. And every passing day is hard to get by without thinking of our loved ones. Many more concepts but they just can't come to my mind right now. Fabulous production by The Necessary Stage. Looking forward to more innovative plays with themes that dare to explore. By the way, sitting in the first row has surprises in store! During the post-show dialogue, while silence pressed on painfully, the host uttered "Students?" and swung the mike in front of me. I gave a weird comment :o ahh. Christine went so yay! but she didn't cry omg but laughed. , and it was the first time all three batches attended a play. St Nicks domination :) Watching Waiting Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
