~ Pictures & Text by Muhammad Zulazmie. Thanks Zul! =)
Fiestari:This year’s Fiestari 2007 Malay dance competition which was held at Chengsan Community center on the 21st of July 2007. It was a memorable moment for our Malay Tarian girls as they were placed 2nd runner-up behind 2 other schools. Their fast tempo and unique dance step has not only delight the audience but also the judges. That has given them the cutting edge over the other 13 groups participating in this nationwide school competition. This was also a big achievement for them to be in the top 3 as they only receive the consolation prize in the same competition last year.
The intensive trainings and daily practices is the key to their success as each and every one of them did their best in the competition. Our tarian girls went through the odds and strive hard enough to bring something back for us to be proud of, with the help of the RP supporters.
~ * ~ Pesta Peti Putih (White Box Festival):The Malay Drama and Literary Group has also done very well in the Pesta Peti Putih ’07 competition recently, or also known as the White Box Festival ‘07, leaving some of the audiences touched and in tears with their sad storyline. Their months of effort have paid off with positive feedbacks from the judges, other participating schools and institutions and also audiences who came to watch their performance on the 21st. Congratulations to one of the cast members, Muhammad Sadikin Nurfaqih Bin Ahmad, who won the Most Outstanding Performer Award.
Their involvement in the Pesta Peti Putih allows them to gain experience working under a well-known theatre organization. They also brought home valuable experience while working with the theatre experts, who also act as their mentors.
~ * ~ Piala Raja Panggung:In Kampong Chai Chee CC, our newly established Dikir Barat girls group, Endang, battled for the first time in a Nationwide Competition. Giant groups like Kelana Purba and Wahana Deksu also competed in this competition. Although they only manage to attain the consolation trophy, they did well and manage to entertain the audience with their performance.
With the intense training that they had, the experience they have gained, we are sure to expect a much better performance in future competitions and shows. They will be performing for the Taman Warisan on the 11th August. They hope to get more recognition and exposure. With the help of RP supporters, Endang will be able to go a long way. A journey of a thousand mile begins with a single step.
