MENJEJAK-SEMULA "NOSTALGIA LAGU KU" (REVISITING "NOSTALGIA LAGU KU")


Title                
Nostalgia Lagu Ku (Nostalgia of My Songs)
Year & Location                
1989, Old Town Hall, Kuala Lumpur
Director           
Normah Nordin
Note
A musical performance where I was 'upgraded' from a back stage design team to a 'performance team', playing a character of a bonggo player for a touring 'bangsawan' troupe (as well as an understudy for the main character).


The iconic Fauziah Nawi (front left) singing along with Dida and her dancing team, while Iryanda Mulya (playing the guitar) and I (playing the gambang) provide the rhythm.
Dance routine where I looked rather lost, if not stupid.
Playing the bonggo.
Dida, doing her dance routine, with me behind the bonggo being mesmerized.
Fauziah Nawi (right) and Rosnah Mat Aris, playing two rival divas.
Me (front left) chatting with Iryanda Mulya. We smoked a lot for the characters, because the storyline later developed into a freak fire caused by cigarette.
Rosnah singing, while I provided the rhythm.
