Me and Jasmine attended the Peranakan Ball


The plot begins within the richest household in town, where Chor Chor Tan yearns to find an ideal lifetime partner for her beloved grandson Philip Tan (played by Dai Yang Tian).
With that, she decides to hold a ball and seeks the help of Yue Niang (played by Xiang yun) to help out with the preparation. Yue Niang empathizes with Bee Tin (played by Jeanette Aw), who is the maid of the household.
The moment she meets her, she feels an affinity with Bee Tin as she reminds her of her young self. She then imparts her fine culinary skills to Bee Tin, hoping to help her gain attention of Philip at the ball.
In the play, Dai acts as a Baba, differing greatly from his Japanese character in the drama serial. With that, Dai is like playing the role of with Pierre Png, who acted as a Baba in Little Nyonya.

Besides Aw, Dai and Xiang who acted in the drama serial, the rest of the cast includes Ann Kok, Chen Tai Ming, Ben Yeo, Huang Jiong Yao and Yang Jia Ying. Singer of Little Nyonya theme song, Olivia Ong is also invited to present the song live during the play.

And not forget to mention this three "actress" who made the play very funny with their drag performance. They are Chen Tai Ming, Huang Jiong Yao and Ben Yeo.




Spotted some of the invited "Little Nyonya" Actress sitting in front of me!

1)Tao Jie 2)Chor Chor 3)Nat Ho 4) Felicia

The stage




I would said is quite a wonderful performance cause it not easy for a lot of them who have no experience on stage play like this...

And most importantly it satisfy a lot of us to see Dai with Jennette together in the play as a happy ending....

I would said this play is like a Peranakan Cinderella story!

The song sang "Ru Yan" by Olivia kept repeating in my mind...

I love the song!

 1) During your entire time of Mr World Singapore 2022 from the time you auditioned till you won the title, tell us - what was the most overwhelming moment for you? Personally, as the grand final day drew nearer, and diet and water had to be stricter, it was hard trying to keep up with the nutrition portion as well as the rest and recovery portion. Aside from that, i was starting to feel a little more anxious that i should and a huge part of it was because i invited my mother to be part of the audience and i wanted the event to be memorable for her.

From the auditions all the way to the Grand Finals, i knew i had to step up as prior to the audition, i let myself go quite abit because of the fact that i was juggling between work and handling my 3 children. But i guess after the audition. i made a clear intent to give 100% to get ready for the grand finals and since then, i made more conscious de...

To be honest, it was when i saw my friend Stanley give the most touching proposal on coronation night. It really made me tear up seeing how emotional he got while on his knee 2) What was the prep process like? The prep process was pretty vigorous nearing towards the end, as there were many events to go for and practices to attend.
