Beauty World Cha! Cha! Cha!

Watched Beauty World the Musical with Mum, Sis and Kok Bin yesterday. Apparently not many of my friends know about this musical. Most of them went "Whats that?" when i told them i'm going to watch it.

Beauty world is a musical set in Singapore in the mid-Sixties, Beauty World is a musical melodrama about the adventures of Ivy Chan Poh Choo, a small town girl in the big city. A mysterious jade pendant brings her from her hometown in Batu Pahat to Beauty World, a fabulous if somewhat seamy 1960s Singapore nightclub, where she hopes to locate her long lost-father. In her adventures, she meets up with her dotty pen-pal, gets a extreme make-over for her stage debut, crosses the path of the cabaret’s vindictive star, and learns some heartbreaking truths about love and life.

It might sound like a cheesy story but it was really quite a good musical complete with good humour, fanciful costumes, nice dancing and wonderful singing. The cast of Elena Wang, Irene Ang, Neo Swee Lin and Darren Tan just to mention a few did exceptionally well. Special mention to Dwayne Tan too who got the whole crowd laughing with his "Ivy" song.

In conclusion, the musical was good and it'll be nice to watch it. It'll also surely destress you after a hard day at work. The tickets are not cheap though..but if that don't deter you...go get 1 now! Beauty World Cha! Cha! Cha!

I've been receiving complains from friends that my blog features nothing but food pictures and i've been eating a lot! I shall keep this next half of my post short. I ate at MakanSutra beside Esplande before the musical. Had grilled stingray and sotong! Yummy lah!
