881 ya! Yo ah yo!
I finally watched this show on Saturday, with a "willing" confidante who only had a vague idea of what the show was about (but still willing to watch with me unlike the so many others that i asked that have no response, not free or not interested to watch). He left applauding the show, and i left very much satisfied with my $9.50 well-spent. Thanks KH.
For those who haven't watched it, i recommend you to go catch it. Now. 881 is a part musical, part theatrical story that revolves around 2-sisters pursuing the passion of becoming getai singers, delivered in Hokkien singings and chinese dialogues. The local version of Moulin Rogue, Perhaps love and High School Musical.
This must be the most beautiful show i have watched for a very long time! I wonder how many people actually will support local productions... Support LOCAL PRODUCTIONS! They don't suck okie! I personally think that we locals have a lot of talent, left un-spotted for a very long time. Roystan Tan is one such local talent. I admire his courage, passion and his eye for spotting and making films that touches the heart of Singaporean and portray us the way we are.
Make more films and touch more hearts!
