Back to 5 months ago............
Yes! It’s theatre time! Actually I do not love theatre so
much, but because of this is one of the events made by our lecturers to fulfil
the syllabus of the subject(Leadership & Management),so by hook or by crook
,we have to join this event. Honestly, the feeling from watching theatre is
much different than watching movies. The truthful in theatre makes it more
interesting for us to watch it. I haven’t watch any theatre before this and
yes, this was the first time for me to watch the theatre. I have heard there
were many theatres have been showed by the Istana Budaya such as Upin &
Ipin(les Copaque) and Puteri Gunung Ledang(Infiniti Productions) so on, so
forth, but frankly speaking, I don’t have any intention to watch those. But
when I heard about Tun Siti Hasmah theatre, I was so eager to watch it.
Thankfully, our lecturers decided to take us to watch this theatre on 14
November 2012(Wednesday) last week, with 4 buses were rent to bring about
120-140 students. And I have to admit that it sucks when we are told to wear a
formal attires and shoes. However , rules are rules. Either u have to follow
the rules, or don’t go to the theatre. That’s it.
So, these are my overviews about the theatre. As we know the theatre of Tun Dr Siti Hasmah is
directed by Erma Fatima at Istana Budaya. I saw the poster says the story lies
on “Behind every great man,there is a great woman”. For me, this theatre
has the best timing set, the best costume, the best seat
price as well (RM18), the best storyline, the best at everything. I know, most of our producers now are trying to
venture into theatre. Do that. I have respect to actors/actress who can act in theatre
more than in a movie or dramas.
As
for this theatre, I watched it on the first opening night. So yes, mistakes are
everywhere. From the timing, the lines and all. But I bet that day, it’ll be a
perfect performance. But that’s the thrill part of watching a theatre. Mistakes
will always be there, either from the stage man, props or even the
actor/actress themselves. So do not worry about that. Eja who plays the older
Siti Hasmah, Lisa Surihani plays as the teenager/young adult Siti Hasmah, Nazim
Othman as the young adult Tun M,and also Esma Daniel who plays older Tun M have
been doing great in being their respective characters.
The only thing that I do need to see improvements are the
plots. The story telling part, the flow of the story. Since this is actually a
tribute theatre, they can’t just show Tun Siti Hasmah in one perspective. They
should combine her being a great mother for her daughters and sons too. They
should not neglect that part. We want to know her
more. We want to see how she was with her children and etc.
Other than that, as there was a plot when Tun M decided to
resign his position as the Prime Minister, it should be serious so we can know
the actual feeling when that happened. But the thing doesn’t go as what the
audiences want. The audiences in the theatre burst out into laughter while
watching that plot because in due to the existence of Rafidah Aziz’s character
maybe. Suppose this should be a serious plot but at the end of the day, this
plot just becomes a dumb joke for the audiences. Apart from that, everything
was okay except I think the Anwar, Nik Aziz and others thingy are not supposed
to be there. It does not make any sense at all I should say.
Anyway, a big kudos to Erma Fatima for her
effort and contribution to let the world know how big were the sacrifices made
by a person called a woman. Lisa Surihani's acting was almost perfect except
that she was struggling with her lines a few times. As for Eja, she was
magnificent and I believe she's meant to be in the industry. And it is
important to note that I am very proud of Tun Dr Siti Hasmah as she is
Malaysia’s second female doctor.
