Simply Superb! 'Nuff said...
You have to watch it at least once in your lifetime! I fully intend to watch it again at the Majestic Theatre, London.

My Fair Lady @ Esplanade Theatre, Singapore


"All I want is a room somewhere,
Far away from the cold night air.
With one enormous chair,
Aow, wouldn't it be loverly?

Lots of choc'lates for me to eat,
Lots of coal makin' lots of 'eat.
Warm face, warm 'ands, warm feet,
Aow, wouldn't it be loverly?"

In my defence - this was my childhood, ok? But tbh, I almost fell asleep towards the end of the musical. It's still a great script, but perhaps better seen on tv or if Julie Andrews plays Eliza Doolittle.

Forbidden City @ Esplanade Theatre, Singapore


Just who is the Empress CiXi?
Adored.
Revered.
Feared.
Hated.
The life of one of the most controversial figures in Chinese history is explored in this Singapore produced musical.

I'd highly recommend this to those whom are interested in Singapore's art scene. It was definately good - just not fantastic. For one, it lacks a "wow" element - e.g. the magic of The Phantom of the Opera or the musical ingenuity of Mamma Mia.
