Last Sunday evening I went to Istana Budaya to watch Teater Mahsuri directed by Fauziah Nawi. The lead actress was Vanidah Imran. I expected a good performance and was given such but overall the theater (in my simple mind opinion) was a bit below of my expectency. The acting was good but the essence of the story was not delivered effectively. This was a musical theather but I thought the music was not that good and attemps to humor the audience were to no avail. The starting was not very attention grabber and the story line was somewhat flat. The ending was good though.
Maybe I didn't view the theater highly because the only other theater I watched was Puteri Gunung Ledang the Musical. Now that was what we called astounding. It realled grabbed my attention, acting was very good, props were spectacular, and the story line was very interesting. I'm sorry I have to compare Mahsuri to PGL buti think they can do better. The actress that acted as Wan Mahura also misdilevered her dialogue 4 times during the perfomance and it was obvious.
However, the last scene (climax) depicting the death sentence really moved me to tears. They have done that beautifully. So, not so much a dissapointment after all for me who is still a novice in watching theater.
