My upcoming production... Villa Singa!!
After eight years, I'll be back at Victoria Theatre (for another production). This time, with Theatre 2000, under Cik Nadiputra for the production of "Villa Singa". How time flies since I last acted (my debut, to be exact) there with Teater Kami in Indera Bangsawan in 1997.
Rehearsals have been okay so far. But I find it challenging, yet enriching, as a theatre enthusiast. Because, besides acting (as Cikgu Hamid), I'm also the co-Stage Manager in this play. And am also involved in conducting the drama workshop/warm-up with the players and crews.
In short, it is FUN!!
Hope my friends/relatives could come and watch this play to be staged on 17th August and Victoria Theatre.
Villa Singa
written and directed by Nadiputra
Villa Singa is based on a true story of a retired army veteran, Encik Hamzah, who was very regimented and highly disciplined in raising his children.
Does being very regimental lead to highly-disciplined children? Will this authoritative up-bringing create a happy family environment? Issues emerged when he disagreed his son, Yunus, to continue his involvement in the arts. He stressed the importance of education, which Yunus' other siblings possesed. This, among others, caused a friction in their relationship in their home that was well-known as "Villa Singa" in the community. The family environment suddenly changed with the help of an elderly confidant by the name of Cik Mat. The friction within the family slowly lessened, however, Encik Hamzah foresee an unpleasant outcome with the sudden unexpected apprearance of Marlia, his ex-flame.
The continuing saga of the story will unfold....
This drama was performed 30 years ago at the National Theatre. Catch Raffi Khan (as Encik Hamzah), Norsiah Ramly (Marlia), Sudin Kassim/Aziz Joned (Cik Mat), Saiful Amri/ Faizal Ramli (Yunus), Zainal Mohamed (Yusuf), Norhayati Ansari/Endang Roslan (Maimon), Hazlina Hashimi (Aishah) and Hazriq Idrus (Cikgu Hamid) as the drama being performed again by Theatre 2000 (in conjunction with its Silver Jubilee celebrations) with a distinctive atmosphere. It is for you to discover the outcome by being present at the revival of Villa Singa.
