Description:

Songs of The Festive Season and a Christmas Musical is a double bill consisting of an a cappella recital of songs traditionally sung at this time of the year followed by a musical in which a little girl hopes that Santa Claus will make her Xmas wishes come true. Both performed by Six2Eight, Kuala Lumpur's 17-year veteran vocal group.

The Christmas Musical will feature Traditional carols alongside Yuletide favourite’s like “Jingle Bell Rock” and “Rudolph” and “Frosty”. We’ll also be showcasing our comedy rewrites of some old festive classics. Look out for “The Twelve Days of Malaysian Xmas” and “The Malaysian Xmas Song” !

Brian McIntyre, the director, “The Musical part, is a story written around Xmas pop songs and performed a cappella, it tells of a family whose main wish is for the safe return of Grandpa who went missing on Xmas Eve many years ago. Without giving the game away, sometimes Santa Claus can make the wishes of good little boys and girls come true. They'll be songs that everyone will know, so come and sing-a-long !”

He continues to add, “The songs will be sung by the members of the Six2Eight accapella group, who are professional and a kindred bunch of people to work with. One key player is veteran stage singer and performer Edna Tan playing the role of a feisty grandma. Edna's theatrical ventures stretch back over forty years. She says she will retire after this one. As if we haven't heard that one before…”

Celebrate the yuletide season with the family as we treat you to Festive songs with a new twist, rearranged and rewritten. The Musical will warm the cockles of the heart. And we will have some dancing elves in Kuala Lumpur that are just too cute. It promises to be a fun and entertaining evening. We wish all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2013 from us at The Actors Studio.

Songs of The Festive Season and a Christmas Musical is being supported by (Cave & Cellar) Hardy's Wine of Australia. For every bottle of Hardy's bought through Cold Storage or Aeon stores, part of the sale price will be donated to The Actors Studio Malaysia to continue producing meaningful theatre.
