PUTERI GUNUNG LEDANG the Musical...

yes, i have watched it...and it was absolutely BRILLIANT!!! so amazing...!
seriously, it was so much better than i had expected...i was just in awe...impressed...at just about everything! from the cast's performance, especially the main 4 - Tiara, Stephen, AC Mizal and Adlin...to the sound, lighting, set design/ layout, costume, dance choreography - the people/ ensemble was just LOUD and ENERGENIC and FANTASTIC...the music, songs...lyrics...and i mean everything-lah! though there were few slips...but it was only the first day of the show...i'm sure they'll improve on it...as well as they can...and some of us did give standing ovation + loud applause + cheers...coz we were so damn impressed and proud of what was staged...!
though the down side of it was that they didnt have/ hold any meet the fans session after the show...which is something i was so looking forward to...but i guess no such luck/ rezeki on meeting my dear Stephen...hehe...hey, he's a hottie...i cant help it...oh well...*sigh*
ok ok...more on the show, you can see the official site at PGL the Musical
click here for synopsis, click here for cast and here for crew, and here's the 4 main cast i was talking about...

Tiara Jacquelina
the Datin Seri, who's not only pretty...but talented in acting...well, we know she can sing (from PGL movie soundtrack) and dance apart from acting...but seriously, on this musical...i was astounded (yea confused wonder but in a good way!)...she can really deliver well...expresses emotions in acting and aiya, damn fantastico! and did y'all know that she won best actress award (and best producer too) at Asia Pacific Film Festival...for her portrayal of the Puteri (the princess) in the movie version??? ok-lah enough about her...

Stephen Rahman Hughes
known for being the lead in Andrew Lloyd Webber's Bombay Dreams...that's in London, baby...but all in all...with training and with the talents he showcases, he deserves to play the ultimate malay warrior character, despite being half-Malaysian...plus, he is hot...so i am all for him being Hang Tuah...and the fact that he used to not speak Malay at all...was wow...coz he speaks fluently and sings beautifully (see what solid and dedicated training can do for you!)...also i think he captured all the hearts of all the women in the auditorium... hahahah...mine included, thank you very much! as my sister puts it, he was one of the reason we actually go and see the show - to see if he can act, sing and dance (oh hell yea he sure can!!!) and to see if he can truly speaks Malay all throughout the show...heheh... and seeing him perform, sure did shut us up...though seems like make us shout, boast and tell people how great he was in the PGLTM !!!...

AC Mizal
one time boyband lead member of 4U2C...he has gone a long way from those days into acting these days...i always love him act as this wacky, crazy and funny character (especially in Baik Punya Cilok), coz he's so good at it...but in this musical, he was just brilliant! being the angry brother of the princess i.e. the King of Majapahit...he really showed the character's anger to the MAX!!! and the singing helps...coz he brought it to life! cayalah...

Adlin Aman Ramlie
the son of a funnyman we all love back in the P. Ramlee days...he reprises his role of Sultan Mahmud of Malacca from the movie into the theatre...but this time, with the musical...he became more involved with the production side of it by being the co-director and lyricist...impressive, right?! yea...so was i...coz during it all...we were listening to the songs...and all his words...just amazing! plus, this time his portrayal is more splendid...as he seems more relaxed as the Sultan, overall fun and cool to watch...and not like in the movie, way too serious and at times just a tad annoying for my liking! hehe...sorry but hey, that's what i think anyways...
ok i've given my comment/ review on the show...now it's time for you all, especially those in KL at the moment, to experience it all...it ends on 26th February...so better hurry and get your tickets, before they sold out...better not miss it...or you'll regret it big time! oh yea, since i told you folks all about it...and make sure you tell everyone you know about it ok...i'm sure gonna let my friends at work know all about it...and rub it in their faces...
hahahahahahahahahahahaha...ergh...when did i become so evil? hehe...just kidding!
i love Stephen...oops...with love,
aishah
