I apologise for not writing anything for the past ... 10 days. Chestnuts had taken my breathe away ...
I am proud of the show. We stage things that, frankly, we find ourselves joking about when we talk cock with friends ... you know, bitching about this television show, that movie star, this singer, that radio dj from perfect 10 ... we talk about how we can "improve" this movie, that tv show, this song, that cinema ad ...
Hence we staged all these in a 2 hour show. It was always going to be rough for tourists, because this was a 100% Singaporean show. We had been asked to make the show more ... accessible, but I guess that will be ... betraying what we set out to do the show, 9 years ago.
The show was, and will always be, about reflecting everything happening around us, in a scenario, a language, a presentation, that we are familiar with, that we truly understand ...
That we are proud of ...
So where do we go from here? Well, Chestnuts 2005 ought to be happening, once a few factors get into place within the next few weeks. Then, its ... letting most of the year sail by before the playwright starts writing the new scripts ...
Looking forward to the next one already ...
And ...
Yah lah ...
