Audience will be glued to their seats from SCENE 1 - CAN’T FIGHT THIS FEELING, where almost if not at least 85% have experienced that first crush, that one person whom we were secretly “in love” with, that girl or guy you were infatuated with, how your world just lit up with just by a glimpse of her / his smile.
SCENE 2 - THE POWER OF LOVE. Reminiscing the moment when you first held hands? That gentle embrace as you look deep into each other’s eyes? How time stood still during your first kiss? What a feeling! Everything was perfect in that moment! You found your soul mate!
The subsequent scene deals with the reality of love. SCENE 3 - SHATTERED DREAMS, explores the emptiness inside your heart as you watch her / him disappear into crowd at the airport as she/ he goes away to further her/ his studies. The countless letters written with no response! The moment when you realize that you are no longer the centre of her / his world. It’s really over and it hurts like nothing you’ve experienced before! Your first break up!
SCENE 4 - NOTHINGS GONNA STOP US NOW, basically acts as reminder of how you wake up one morning and realize that your tears are in vain. You move on and get over that person. You hang out with your friends and party! You meet new people, make new friends, travel. You want to live life to the fullest! There are 4 Acts in each scene in Stories from A Mixtape that highlights the various parts of the first love experience with acting and music. This musical reflects the scale and passion of this band consisting of Leonard Theng & The Cerita.
The band came together about two years ago sharing a common goal in the Malaysian music industry. That goal was to create shows with a specific storyline and emotional link that will have the audience wanting more. Each band members have backed up Local & International recording artist such as Atilia Haron, Ning Baizura, Kris Dayanti, Alleycats, and Ella, they have also been involved with a few successful musicals in Kuala Lumpur such as Ola Bola, Fame & Charlie Brown.
Jiggee’s his name; and fun's his game. If you ever need a versatile entertainer, here is your man;
Master of Ceremony or Ceremonies | MC | Emcee | Compere | Host | Toastmaster | Comedian – whatever you deem it, Jiggee was born to do this!
Jiggee is all of the above and then some! His aim is to leave his audiences well and truly entertained, laughing their hearts out as he emcees zealously, bouncing off the walls, both on stage and off as well.
His foray into the entertainment world began some 24 years ago or so, from the tender age of 8, when performing became a regularity of sorts. Singing, acting, and drama were the staple diet between the ages of 8 - 14. This eventually led to theater in the US and once back on Malaysian soil, doors opened for some TV exposure.
