Voyage De La Vie

"Love. Temptation. Conflict. Life. Death."

 

It's been months since school started, and also since I left my first official job at Resorts World Sentosa, which was probably the best first job experience I could have asked for. So imagine how excited I was when Cynthia (my ex-colleague) informed me that she got me tickets (worth $108) to watch Voyage De La Vie, the resident theatrical rock circus spectacular at RWS. Ain't she the best?

Enter the fantasy world of the mysterious Lantern Keeper, the charming Crystal Cat and the mesmerizing Diva along with extraordinary inhabitants and explore the journey of a boy on an adventurous search to discover his destiny. An unforgettable experience of magnificent sets, glamorous costumes and amazing circus feats awaits…

Proudly presented by Resorts World Sentosa, Voyage de la VieTM is its first resident show. The first circus theatre spectacular ever to be created in Singapore premieres an international cast of circus stars brought together from 16 countries.

I'm personally a huge fan of live shows and I can say that this is the best show I've been to so far, hands down. It was a thrilling ride from start to finish, and my only rife with it is that it seemed too short - I didn't want the awe to end so soon.

Singapore Idol alum Jonathan Leong was cast as the show's lead. It was nice to see that a local was for once the main character, and while Jon's singing abilities have improved tremendously since Idol days, one can't help but notice that he was overshadowed by the rest of the cast (even though you could really tell that he was giving his best), whether it was the contortionist or the juggler altogether. It wasn't really his fault really, their performances blew me away. I only wish that the main character would have stood out more. Other than that, the show was truly spectacular and it was better than any 3-D movie that I have watched. Mesmerizing, honestly. The music, the diverse sets, the performances, the costumes, the dancing, the 'stunning exhibitions of grace, agility and speed and death-defying feats, some which have never been seen before anywhere in the world', and the amazing cast made the show fabulous. Definitely a recommendation.

In fact, I believe that this local production is world-class, and that's saying alot, especially with the local arts scene in question.

I miss working life. But that was the past and I have examinations to look forward to in the weeks to come, so I think that I'm going to end off right here to hit the books.
