the actual performance starts at 730 pm, but from 630 to 730 there is a pre-show, whereby dance groups are invited to perform, for eg SOTA, NAFA, nus dance synergy and of course nus chinese dance. the item put up by nus chinese dance is none other than "Shattered", choreo-ed by michael.
before going to BUTS, i went to darling's house first to make egg mayo sandwiches for our picnic. darling also toasted some sausages. after that we took a cab to fort canning park.
michael told us to come earlier than 5 pm because spaces on the field were taken up very fast. xue hong arrived earliest at 430 pm. darling and i were the second to arrive at 445 and we quickly expanded our territory.
so while waiting for the pre-show to start, i taught everyone how to play "minimizer". its a very fun game that was taught to me during my outdoor camp. at taiwan i also played this game with zhenhong and kc. at malacca i also played it with leow, mak and dashimon. and at BUTS, i am playing this game too! haha.
so instead of the usual forfeit of doing crunches or push ups, we have to do dance poses instead. presenting to you, the various dance poses:
some of these poses look familiar rite? haha.
finally the pre-show started. shattered was the 3rd item.
(sexy backs and sexy legs~)personally, i feel that some parts of the item was a bit messy. and i did not feel the impact from the item that it was supposed to portray. probably because i watched it quite a few times. hopefully the rest of the audience who din watch the item before will feel the impact.
the whole dance performance put up by singapore dance theatre was magnificient. all the dancers' techniques and skills 当然是好倒没话说. so let me say about other random stuff. haha.
the female dancers are so lean, and one of them is like a body builder with super well-defined muscles, just that her muscles are not the bulky type but the lean type, if you noe wat i mean. and a few of them have really really LONG legs.
as for the guys, they have incredible strength despite being so lean. and their groins are very big, but fen says that its because they are wearing something to support the groin, so that makes the groin look big. hahahaha.
but seriously, if you ask me whether will i want to watch BUTS nx year, i will seriously consider carefully, because singapore's weather is too humid, and i was perspiring non-stop throughout the whole performance. unless singapore has winter, then i will go watch next year. having said that, the probability of me going is equal to zero. hahaha.
