From the Curtain Cloth to the Curtain Call


The Beginning...
 My Favourite Poster
 

 The play was a success and has been a great inspiration for me in being who I am. Special thanks to all members of Cohort 4 for being a part of my life and our beloved lecturer, Madam Noor Akbari Ismail Ali for giving us the opportunity to explore the world and open our heart and believe that learning English is enjoyable, fantastic and it is always more than a language. 

 It was a beginning of my new chapter in my life and I learned so many things  throughout the experience. With a minimal budget we were able to create a maximum impact; from curtain cloths to marvelous costumes and from trash to great sets and props. Nothing is impossible if we believe in ourselves. Everything will always be in my heart and be a wonderful history of my life.


The Preparation...

 It wasn't easy + dangerous!


 The technical crews(Amir & Arif) and the producer(in the middle)

 Mr Higgins (Hadzmeer) and Colonel Pickering (Farid) with one of our great set. 

 Aimimah & Azam - the final touch up

 I will always remember him. Shazny Shazwan Sallehuddin, thanx a million!

 The director (Mira) and the casts

The producer (Mior) - Thanx for helping especially in the making of the wonderful video(the learning scene of Eliza - as you can see behind him)!


Oh ya! I forgot to tell that actually we have two directors (Mira & me) and two casts for every main character. It was wonderful to change them in between the scenes without the audience noticing it! (except Colonel Pickering because they look totally different..huhu)

FYI, Madam Nori assigned us to have two different people for each main character in order to give more opportunity for us to be on the stage.

Let's have a look at the next pictures. It will explain more=D...

The Play...
 
The Entrance
 Our Special Guests

Tickets & Souvenir
(Syazana, Hazimah & Izzatul)  
Sold Out!

My Inspirations
All the way from JB, my beloved mother, Hajah Husniah Abdullah(Left)
The one & only, our Madam Nori(Right)

 MC of the night, Shafiq Aziz & our VVIP, Tuan Hj Abdul Rahman during the Lucky Draw session

The Female Casts

The Male Casts
*Madam Nori is putting her hands on Farihan(He is a girl!huhu..)

 Our Eliza (Aisyah & Hayana)

 Our Higgins(Farihan & Hadzmeer)
 They look the same!=D
*We chose Farihan as one of the Professor Higgins due to a scene where Higgins is arguing with Eliza and he grabs her hands during the argument. The challenge was to have similar look so that the audience will not be so confused & we had to be very aware of the sensitivity issues.

Our Colonel Pickering(Faizal & Farid)

Directors & Main Casts
Mira + Nabil = Best


 At the Backstage
Thanks Azreem a.k.a. Kak A'im (two from the left) & Crews for the Marvelous Costumes

 A Happy Family
*We added a scene where Eliza(Aisyah) married with Freddy(Amar) and have a daughter(Solihah). On the right, Mr. Doolittle(Raisham)

 Amazing Friends
(Shazny, Huzairil & Mior)
*You are always a part of us...
Cohort Four IPGKB

Unfortunately, we did not have pictures during the play due to the hectic situation. However, I will always miss the moments very much and looking forward for our next production in March 2011 for Literature for Children & Young Adults subject. I hope that it will be an amazing and memorable 'curtain call' for B. Ed. TESL Cohort Four IPGKB!
