Boeing Boeing

well i had a hearty laugh non-stop during the theatre at Victoria Theatre last saturday (2/april/2005)
its nice to see how much local performances have evolved.
i am not clear of my preference for live theatre to TV.
a world class performance.
cudos to W!LDRICE for a job well done!

the 3 actress were really good and its clear that they did their homework if not throughly over the normal limits!
there's the SIA, Cathay Pacific and JAL. 3 airstewardess in their quest to find their runway for the ultimate touch down.

SIA is the what i would call the high class ahLian.
pure Singlish but not overpowering to put the audiences off. with just that hint of emphasis to tickle the sides!
Cathay Pacific is the oh-so-famous cantonese slang in the english. hard to copy but even harder to make sure the majority get what she's saying which is why the articulation was so wonderfully executed!
JAL, ahh the japanese girls and their kawaii accented english. i was really surprised and delighted hear the like-the-real english. its been my favourite to listen to her!

i must applaude the script-writer and their director and not forgetting the performers and the backstage people.
the props are wonderful and i cant stop thinking of that nice grey armchair.
the subtle political and racial touches to the whole prformance for that added laughter.
the layout and carefully directed play for that chair gripping excitement/suspense and that side splitting actions and deliver.

its been a while since i have laughed like that.
thank you for the wonderful night all of you at BOEING BOEING.
