Long Way To Go - The Click Five

Just several months ago I was writing about how much I was feeling all jittery & nervous about The Nutcracker audition and guess what, a few hours ago was our final, closing performance.

I have so much to say.

Right from the very beginning, from the pre-audition pandemonium every single participant was feeling to learning the steps, followed by taking our positions up to hectic rehearsals & then finally setting foot into Esplanade for the entire run through alongside with thick make-up caking our face. From Aunty Gwen drawing our red circles for us to us drawing them ourselves. From individuals from totally unrelated worlds to cronies who stood by each other through thick & thin through out the production. From hostile greetings to sharing of ghost stories in our changing room. From single to attached. From individuals to a team.

From baby rats, clock mice, male rats, soldiers to one big family of closely-knitted dancers. From the start to the end.

I will miss The Nutcracker 2008 so much. If only words can fully comprehend the emotions within. I'm feeling so nostalgic. I've learnt so much. To those who wished me luck for the performances, you are deeply appreciated, & I needed them :)

Trigger happy :)

We went to the KTV one day at Liang Court.
