On the way to Marina Bay Sands! We're so excited!!!
Took a picture of the stage before we have to keep our cameras. Photo taking isn't allowed :(
Wicked the Musical is about the story of 2 witches -
Elphaba, Wicked Witch of the West (Performed by Jemma Rix)
and Glinda, Good Witch of the North (Performed by Suzie Mathers)
Enemies initially but grew to become best friends although there were down times when they both fell for the same guy, Fiyero. This Musical happens before Dorothy came into the picture.
Elphaba was born with emerald green skin and is deeply misunderstood by others whereas Galinda (later known as Glinda), is a beautiful, ambitious blonde (and gets besotted with Fiyero instantly haha)
What's amazing is during certain parts of the musical, Dorothy is already making her way to see the Wizard of Oz as there is scene of the Yellow Brick Road but she's well hidden from the audience. We can only see Glinda giving directions and I didn't realise it until Baboo told me! No wonder I find it familiar when the shadow of a girl in 2 ponytails was seen splashing a bucket of water at Elphaba. Really good linkage between the 2 films! :)
This is the best scene before Act 1 came to an end! It's beyond description and I was totally awed! Jemma Rix is extremely good!!!
Defying Gravity
This is the best live performance I could find starring Jemma Rix (As Elphaba) . Another full version could be heard below. (Fast Forward to 1:19)
Another of my favourite scene where Fiyero and Glinda danced.
This is a version of Adam Lambert starring as Fiyero . He looks so mesmerizing and good with minimal make up on :)
Act II: "As Long as You're Mine"
Really limited videos of the whole song because filming isn't allowed in other countries as well. Here's one with Adam Lambert in it :) I still prefer Adam Lambert's version. Not being biased or what but he is capable of hitting higher notes.
It's fantastic and a couple of people gave standing ovations. Money was well spent man. It's really worth watching and quite a number of the songs are nice too!
Bought a shirt from the tour merchandises shop. It's so pretty!
My 1st Musical experience and it's extremely fantastic. The December weekends are so fruitful and fulfilling with many events up our sleeves. We even went to Universal Studios together with Qing Pei!
The main aim is for the new Transformers attraction :)
It's so freaking awesome and everything seems so real. I like the part where we crashed into the office as well as descending to the ground floor. It's so exciting!!! Music will be played whenever Bumblebee appears. How cute! Not a fan of Transformers but I have to say it's a worthwhile experience and everyone should try it out! We only took it twice because of the long queue and we queued for 1 hour each for both occasions.
We even saw Vanness Wu!
The weird thing for this outing is that I didn't see much characters at all :/
Ok maybe a few like Betty Boop, Marilyn Monroe, Charlie Chaplin and Woody the Woodpecker only!!! We were there for 7.5 hours man~ And again they disappoint me because I would love to take pictures with Puss in Boots and Madagascar characters.
We had lunch at KT's Grill again.
You'll be spoilt for choices for the wide variety of western food. Ordered quite a number of side dishes with Qing Pei.
Baboo's Fish & Chips :)
My favourite dish is the Mushrooms!
Delicious button mushrooms sprinkled with spring onions on top
Comes with complimentary bread as well which taste heavenly!
We're back on this ride again. Haha it's kinda silly in my opinion cuz not much of an oomph but great for kids I supposed.
This little creature is so cute!
Back to Far Far Away for the Shrek 4D attraction and we're kinda pissed about it! Our seats aren't functioning at all.
This is one of the main Christmas tree in USS. We heard announcement over late noon that 1 lucky person will get to light up this Xmas tree at night. Haha, we find it hilarious upon hearing that.
And not forgetting, the highlight of the day:
We took the Mummy ride for 5-6 times. Babu kept forcing us when we were totally NOT looking forward to that sudden acceleration and drops. I hate drops in the dark because I couldn't anticipate them and it's very scary. He was so excited during the whole ride and was laughing and giggling compared to others who were screaming. We didn't know that he'll go THAT far..
.. to smell his own ARMPITS!!
Ok, this image suddenly reminds me of Steven Lim TTM hahaha! Qing Pei's expression wasn't planned at all! XD
Yes we bought it for $18.00! Crazy Babu! The staff even asked whether that's him and he proudly admitted to it.
