wish i was there...

KUALA LUMPUR: It has been a long eight-year wait, but Malaysian fans of Jacky Cheung finally got to see the Hong Kong superstar’s acclaimed Chinese stage musical Snow.Wolf.Lake at the Putra Indoor Stadium in Bukit Jalil here last night.

A capacity crowd of almost 9,000 people watched the opening performance, which featured elaborate sets, heart-wrenching songs and dazzling performances by the cast.

Snow.Wolf.Lake is the first large-scale Chinese musical production to be staged in Malaysia. The show is presented by DiGi and organised by Galaxy Productions.

It tells the tragic love story of Wolf (played by Cheung), a poor gardener who falls in love with Snow (Evonne Hsu), who is from a rich family.

Hong Kong actress Nadia Chan takes on the role of Phoenix, Snow’s sister, who is also in love with Wolf.

Conceived by Cheung in 1997 and initially performed only in Cantonese, the musical proved to be so popular all over Asia that a Mandarin version – which is the one performed here – was created to reach out to Mandarin-speaking audiences in China and Taiwan, as well as South-East Asia.

The performances in Malaysia will also be among the last that Cheung is appearing in, as the singer is set to relinquish the role to another actor next year. There will be another performance tonight-www.thestar.com.my
