The legendary about Malacca’s famous warrior is very close to us. Especially to Malays. But it does not mean that other races do not know about it. Now, at Istana Budaya, there is a theater entitled, PUTERI GUNUNG LEDANG- the Musical.
How does Puteri Gunung Ledang is related with Hang Tuah. Well, is this theatre, the princess is deeply in love with this Malay warrior. Actually, according to history, Puteri Gunung Ledang NEVER falls in love or has any kind of relationship with the admiral. It is just a story…
It is not bad to watch it, as this is the first time I watch theatre. What’s more at ISTANA BUDAYA!!! Well, that is impressing. I never imagined that I will go there.
Talking about the play, let’s see whether it satisfies the characteristics of a good play.
1. Does the play satisfy our intellect?
Well, maybe we should think again about sacrifices that we did to our loved ones. Does it worth?
2. Does it show organization?
Very well, organized!
3. Does the play show the ideational content?
Well, my first reaction after watching this play is, is it a tragic ply? Well, it is. Because Gusti Putri Retno Dumilah chooses to sail to Malacca to meet her loved one. The tragedy happens because if her free will.
4. Is the play meaningful to us?
Certainly it deals with our everyday live!! No question.
5. Does the play have economy, novelty and impact?
A 2 hours and 15v minutes play, it can be considered ok. Just like you watch film at cinema. But watching theatre enable you to see life performance. The price? Hmm.. I only pay RM15.00, (the actual price is around RM 150.00) only 10% from the actual price.
As the conclusion, it is worth to watch it. It is a great loss for those who do not watch it!!!
