The emptiness is starting to set in.

More than a year of preparations ended with a big bang last night at the Singapore Repertory Theatre. What should I look forward to now?

It was an exhilarating experience. Stress set in in the week before the actual days while tempers tended to flare a little. On the actual performances itself, unexpected situations happened which increased that stress-level to greater heights.

But the feedback was positive. Many felt that the script was well written, well-presented and well acted. There were improvements to be made. But overall, the audience loved it, and we as scriptwriters had successfully led audiences into thinking and discussing about their interpretations of what they had just seen. A few other alumni members who turned up to watch the show commented that it was the best performance they had ever seen at Cha Dian, and my male lead, whose performace I was worried about, rose to the occassion that drew the audiences into feeling the pain and suffering of the character.

I still think about how we started from scratch, and how far we have gone since then.

Seeing the whole thing completed by the end of the day was overwhelming. I never cried at the last moments in my years being involved in Cha Dian. But yesterday after the credits rolled and the cheers were done, I broke down right there on stage.

Yet it was all worth it, I'm telling you. All worth it.

To all my loved ones who came to watch the play - THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH! Your presence and positive feedback meant so much to me!!!
