Today(yesterday) I was at the Esplanade watching the musical. It was pretty good, it's like a show within show. There's this ''Master of Ceremonies'' that comes out here and there, singing us what's gonna happen or what had happened. The tunes are nice. Overall, the show was good, but I was hoping for more drama but it didn't happen...
