The Beauty World journey was long and tedious, calling for sacrifices from one and all, from sleepless nights to frayed tempers to missing WWE Raw on Monday nights, but the show we put on last night made all these sacrifices worthwhile. The spectacle we put up was, simply spectacular and amazing, worthy of the standing ovation we all received at the end. Even though not everything went on smoothly during rehearsals, yet I was quietly confident we would not let each other down; we have all put in much effort into this, it was never gonna fail us at the end. And suffice to say, everyone, from cast to the backstage crew, from the lights people to our sound people headed by AC boy Kenneth, played their part in ensuring Beauty World would forever be the best thing to hit the University of Chicago entertainment scene.
Now, even though I am no dancer, I was actually elated to do the final dance; as I entered for the final bow, and watever all hold-hand and bow things at the end, the adrenaline was really pumping it up; as I saw the appreciative audience rising to their feet to give a standing ovation to each and every one of us, indeed that was the best feeling I ever had for a very long time.
The corny aspect of it all being the audience seeminly treating this whole musical as a comedy, which I am perfectly fine with. Wah lao, I step out in Act 1 Scene 1, havent even smoked my cigar, havent even spoken a line, the audience down there laughing liao. Aiya, I look like a comical towkay meh? So aniways, playing to the audience, most of us just tried to make out lines as witty as possible, throwing in random lines as and when possible. After all, we give the audience what they want right? The high from last night is still here, and I am not referring to the physical highness we all experienced at the afterparty. Simply put, BW is an experience we will all treasure all our lives. yesterday was simply the best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be. (Note: there is no 'the best is yet to be here', cos yesterday was simply of the highest quality)
So let me upload all the pics I took. As I mentioned on our BW facebook thing, we are all beautiful people involved in this beautiful musical we call Beauty World; even with make-up, we are beautiful ... in every single way.
