CATS , one of the greatest and most adored musicals the world has ever known, has returned to Singapore and is now performing at the MasterCard Theatres, Marina Bay Sands from now till the 5th January 2020. I attended the ' Mr Mistoffelees Magical Gala' , and I welcomed this musical with open arms as I know it is quite simply, a musical masterpiece and phenomenal! The musical features a magnificent musical score composed by the legendary Andrew Lloyd Webber  that includes the timeless hit song, 'Memory' .   I loved the amazing stage settings, as it created an artistic 'Cat's Cradle' of a playground. ‘ CATS’ tells the imaginative tale of a tribe of Jellicle Cats, and they gather together for the annual Jellicle Ball.  This beautiful musical has been seen by over 70 million people world-wide, and w hen 'CATS' first opened in London in May 1981, it went on a record-breaking number of awards internationally, which incl...

Premiere night of INALA + Happy Shopping with Althea

Image
INALA finally makes its way from London's West End to the Sands Theatre at Marina Bay Sands. INALA is about togetherness. It transports the audience directly to the small village in Africa in which it is set, and it fills our hearts with peace and joy.     The stage setting is rather simple, but the excellent performance makes up for it!  INALA delivers an exhilarating fusion of South African and western cultures live on stage, and is not to be missed.     Thanks to the ' Sisters Grimm' for having us at the premiere night of the Grammy Multi-award winning West End Zulu Ballet , ‘INALA’ . It is a perfect marriage of contemporary dance and choral music. A tremendous feel-good visual treat indeed!       First of all, I would like to thank Althea for pampering and taking care of me. I am super happy to be part of Althea's Angels , who are the beauty ambassadors of Althea's Beauty Community!     ...

This is a legendary masterpiece that all faithful fans should not give it a miss. I was looking forward to watch this magnificent and all-time favorite musical.

Special mention has to go to the Elephant prop in once scene!   Watching and listening to the musical LIVE was amazing and I love everything about it, be it the music, the settings or the singing… Due to the theme of night being a 'Masquerade Gala Night' , the team from Base Entertainment prepared masks and roses for us to join into the fun!

I attended the Media Night of MAMMA MIA! I was looking forward to this musical, as it is a famous one based on classic songs of ABBA . The musical was last performed in Singapore in 2014 and  now they are back again to our sunny island after receiving huge success during their last performance.  The award-winning musical has opened at   The MasterCard Theatres at Marina Bay Sands  on the 03 November 2018, and tickets are now on sale.

MAMMA MIA!  is an entertaining and 'ABBA-solutely' fabulous musical, and the cast gives the audience a feel-good experience that leaves me wanting mor...

This musical is family-friendly entertainment for all ages, and 'THE SOUND OF MUSIC' hits all the right notes!   I was there for the play back in 2014, and I still enjoyed myself as much as I did 3 years ago. ' THE SOUND OF MUSIC' still touches my heart although this was my second time watching this musical.
