'Cursive' by Cloud Gate Dance Theatre Part II

I believe there is really much more to learn about Dance & Performance. The interesting thing in the sharing session with Mr Lin is tt i get to see the ugly side of Singaporeans. Tt day's audience are ppl largely from the Dance arena, Education arena & Drama arena. Many Singaporeans perhaps wish to display their sophistication as arts consumers, so during the session, instead of Q&A, many ended up giving their comments & critics on Cursive.

Hey, this is extremely shameful, esp when the comments turned out to be very superficial. One of those Eg. "Mr Lin, I feel tt Cursive is a good perf but i find the black costumes too plain, I think U SHOULD add some colors to ur costumes." Wah pls leh, the idea came from the Dance Choreographer himself, he definitely has his reasons for designing his costumes in black only. Ever seen Chinese Caligraphy in colored ink? Pls lah, understand the intentions behind the dance piece b4 u comment. Next, even though dance is open to interpretation, pls phrase ur questions/comments in a better way, Its rude to dictate the Choreographer what he SHOULD/ SHOULD NOT do...

Another eg. "I think this production is very similar to Water Moon, haf u reached a bottleneck in ur Ling Gan? I haf watched many perf by Cloud Gate, i realize e dance pieces r getting more & more similar." Wah piang, pls be more courteous can? Every single production is unique, even if u think its similar, dun shoot it straight to the Choreographer lah, so rude, act as if u very sophisticated. Music diff, costume diff, dance theme diff, everything oso diff, Even if movements a little similar, Internal Feelings of the dancers may be diff as well, How can u juz judge on the surface? Wah piang, e shameful issue is the attitude of trying to act 'sophisticated' but end up giving superficial comments.... =(

Sigh, Singaporeans huh.... =(
