After Jubilee - report 02

For sheer excitement, the rehearsals started and it has been very interesting to me.

During the last gathering we did discuss about the attire, props, PA and lighting. Our lighting designer, Chin Ang suggested to buy three more spotlights, but I still need to double check our budget and there is a possibility that we can only afford two. The others are alright. For PA system, I am glad and grateful enough to have Mengq Yek's loudspeakers, it is mighty and contrives to produce those stentorian tones as in disco, seriously! (Have to credit his interest on trance which made him buy that gadget)

Meanwhile about the dramas, I decided to cancel the additional play 'Malaysian Potpourri' because the play was made for Merdeka hence it would be too late to perform it by next year 19th January. But, I will add in another conceptual performance; a replacement? More of a justification for our so called 50th Anniversary, that is if you get what I mean, if not, ask the beacon Yee I-Lann.

I just got to talk to Dr. Yee, who is the village chief of Seri Kembangan. I wrote him a letter beforehand, asking for permission to perform in the community hall in section 7, fortunately he agreed in letting the place with no rental. It is a very good deal, compared to our previous option (KKK in Serdang Raya), which the paraphernalia solely, cost us around RM 2000.

According to him, I will be able to get the key two days before the actual event, we will then have our crucial ROSs (rehearsal on the spot). So fellow thespians, rock on.
