Sound of Music Concert at WMSKL

Yesterday, mom took me to see a live performance at Wesley Methodist School, where she works as a teacher there now. The show is called 'Sound of Music', played by the school students themselves. I'm pretty sure you have seen the movie before. If you haven't, go and see it for yourselves! The concert is performing in two nights, like what I did before in a school musical. But I'm only coming for the first night. Brings back memories from my school days when I was singing in a choir.
While we were on the way to the school, it was pretty jam along the highway. We left quite early. So I put some Cantonese music to cheer us up in the car.



Finally, about an hour, we reach the school. Mom show me around the school. It was a big school, if you ask me. She show me where to go up for the concert. The hall is located at the top floor. Plus, she also show me the puppets that look like the one in the movie. They look cute♥







Then, we took the lift and show me around the hall. Doors will only open at 7.30 but the show will start at 8.00.





Then we roam around the classrooms on the way to the staff room. The students there are very polite. Whenever they see her, they greet her as 'Madam'. I was like "Wow!". We enter the staff room and I saw my math teacher, Mdm Susan. Her family is coming too, along with her two cute granddaughters.
We were hungry, so we head down to the canteen. Mom got me some food coupons for us to eat. I took a waffle with chocolate filling inside. I saw Mr Lim, our Science teacher back in my school. Also mom introduce me to an Indian lady teacher who borrowed me the saree for my Malaysian culture day in college.
Since I got nothing to do inside the staff room, I went down to look for my mom when suddenly I spot a familiar faces coming down the road. It's Mdm Susan's family!! The two girls name are Janae and Emma. They look quite tired.
Finally it's time to go up. I went on ahead with Janae. At the entrance, I accidently gave my two tickets, one is mine and the other one is a teacher from my school. We were taken to our seats by the prefects, who are ushering. Then the rest of Janae's family came in. Mdm Susan gave us a copy of the program book. Inside was the cast and crew of the musical. Suddenly, we change our seats to the side seats that look like a stadium. But we can see the performance clearer and we can take photos too. The show started late because the VIP guest arrived late. I'm guessing it's due to the traffic outside. 
Finally, the show started. See here for the photos of the performance. I didn't manage to take the whole performance due to low battery of my camera.
It was a great experience for me. Lucky they declare Monday a holiday. Me and mom were planning to go shopping on Monday hopefully. What a magical night it was. Can't wait for Sunday's concert :D!!
