Korang baik pi tengok! Memang international standardlah (the setting especially...stage dia better than Broadway's Mamma Mia which we saw in New York City last year.Mamma Mia so cikai.P.Ramlee punya macam Don Quixote's I saw in Madrid..stage-nya bertingkat2 dan babak keretapi tu memang sophisticated habislah.Sapo engineer/architectnya gamaknya? Gua tabik lu!)
Memang sedih juga kisah P.Ramlee ni tapi tak tau betui ke tidak versi depa ni.I hope they did their research well.Theatre kena ada R&D baru boleh percaya.Blue Man group dia pun semua buat research for every show they make.That's why they appeal to so many people esp. orang2 technical minded ni.
Last year, ramai orang marah sebab the play was accused of turning all of Ramlee's women into prostitutes.I guess it's a matter of interpretation-lah.
Costume dia bagus tapi dalam konteks hari ni..tengok wanita Melayu onstage berkemban (lagi! Dulu dalam Puteri Gunung Ledang pun timbul isu berkemban) hodoh juga.At one point, a group of them looked like wanita zaman batu sedang buat tarian zaman batu mereka.Adakah ini disengajakan, wallahualam.
I suka papparazzi tu.Mereka tersangat la cute sebab mereka tersangat lah kelakar.
Sapa Musly Ramlee? Dia betul2 macam aruah P.Ramlee.Gedik dia memang gedik P.Ramlee.

Questions I need you to answer:
1.Mengapa legenda negara selalu die in poverty? : P.Ramlee, Saloma, Sudirman?
2. Sepanjang hayat P.Ramlee, orang selalu exploited him..begitu banyak films and songs he made, sapa yang kaya? Even today I wonder profits made out of his life through this play..adakah dikongsi bersama2 keluarga Allahyarham? (anaknya Nasir dan yang lain2 itu..Dian dan Sazali? Sazali is a rubbish collector I was told)
3.Bagaimanapun I still say syabas to Tiara and co. I think she has done a lot to promote Malay theatre into being accepted by ALL Malaysians (malam tu ramai bangsa bukan Melayu datang).That is why I told her, "Thank you for making us all Malaysians." Kita jangan underestimate Tiara.Dia telah bawak kita jauh and her Malay is so sedap didengar (as is her English).Kita yang kononnya memperjuangan bahasa, budaya ni tau bercakap je.Tiara telah lama tinggalkan kita. My question is: tidakkah kita malu dengan Tiara? (and her co.)
Orang kata ada duit, semua jalan.Not true.Ramai philanthropists kita pun banyak duit but what do they do to menmertabatkan warisan budaya kita?

Mungkin seniman negara miskin disebabkan cara kita menghargai mereka. Kita orang Malaysia, perhargaan selalunya bukan dalam bentuk material kerana kita bangsa yang penuh perasaan (Walaupun rasa tak kan membuat kita kaya).
Dan, saya juga tertanya-tanya, andai P. Ramlee masih hidup, segemilang inikah sanjungan orang terhadap dia? I don't think so. Lihat saja seniman yang masih tinggal ...
Mungkin mereka tidak setaraf dengan P. Ramlee .. tapi, kalau P.Ramlee masih hidup, adakah P.Ramlee akan dianggap bertaraf begini?
Seniman - dinikmati ketika hidup, digemilang selepas mati ...
Betul Fisha.Saya setuju sangat pasal mungkin Allahyarham P.Ramlee masih tidak dihargai jika dia masih hidup.Kita selalu bagi penghargaan bila orang dah mati.Tak baik begitu.Takda gunanya pun.
Penghargaan dari segi perasaan pun tak banyak.Kita lebih suka tengok yang tak elok dari apa yang baik.Ada sahaja yang tak kena.Apa salah kita beri tumpuan pada yang cantik/strength sebelum kita mula dengan mengutuk, kan? Masa kat Istana Budaya tu, saya terdengar orang depan tu kata "kalau ada borang feedback, saya nak komplen pasal kerusi sempit."
Kerjanya nak komplennnnnnnnnnn je.
Maka saya tertanya-tanya: nikmat manakah yang kita tidak kufuri? Ada duit dapat pergi teater mahal pun tak bersyukur.Kerusi sempit juga yang dia nampak.
I saw the musical too (with my cracko sister - see? u r x de only one with a loonybin for a sister -hwang3). I also wondered on the truth about P. Ramlee. The P. Ramlee that I saw at IBN was more like the P. Ramlee that I saw in Do Re Mi, Bujang Lapok and 3 Abdul. Yes, research has got to be carried out for us to know the man behind P. Ramlee the legend. I suspect he was a more complex man than was potrayed at IBN. The musical was two dimensional for me. However, it was still a joy and I discovered that I miss P. Ramlee and Saloma very much.
Hi Mek @ Meg,
Isn't there a book on Ramlee written soonest after his death? I read it but can vaguely remember.
Kalau tak silap,there was an account on Norizan and something about a ring which became controversial between her and Saloma.Rasanyalah.Does anyone remember? I wonder where that book is now.
Sapa2 yang ingat tentang buku ni, please share here.Who wrote it?
