黄城夜韵 2005
Saturday, March 19, 2005
The last time I went for 黄城 I was still blogging in my livejournal blog.. I went to reread it again and found similar sentiments...
"Clocked another Hwachong event.
Though the script was hollow, the acting was lousy and the directing could definitely have more style.. it was after all a Hwachong production.. a production I was part of. Though I was restless throughout the draggy performance, what took me back to my seat was the ending credits.. when all of the crew took centre stage once more to take their final bow..
Yep. Now watching al these kids do what we did.. the feeling is very good.The feeling is the same whether it's O1, CNY, MAF or Huang Cheng.. the pressing urge to return to the good ol days but held back by the helplessness of maturing. Going back to Hwachong events is just to rekindle memories of the carefree and fun-filled days.. surrounded by friends who inevitably share and contribute to your joy of being young. "
I guess it's the same again this year.. though I think this year's production was much better than last year's. The script was still inherently lousy but I thought the handling of the 1st 2 acts were rather good. But HuangCheng can never be as good as the good old days in terms of standard and spirit I guess.
Ultimately, the best part of the show was when the emcee announced
"现在我们来邀请黄城夜韵台前幕后的人员... 演员!"
And immediately memories of me rushing forward to bow to the raging audience would gush into my head again.
Ah those good old days.
Paying money for HuangCheng was not for the drama.. it is more for reliving the memory once more.
Another council outing!
