Accu-Chek Launch

I had fun playing a pharmacist who has a bizarre encounter with a duck butcher! KK Wong is a very funny guy. We had fun doing this launch for this small blood glucose meter for diabetics and turned it into something weirdly hilarious.

Various recent drama workshops with Joanna Bessey Productions

Workshop organised by Gong Klasik in Sungai Siput

















Workshop held at PJ Live Arts





























Workshop at Violet Flame.










Heidi Vogel back by popular demand at No Black Tie






















































































It was a great couple of nights in March when Heidi was able to come back to No Black Tie for a quick visit, while she was in Singapore performing in a Cinematic Orchestra concert at the Esplanade.

She also did a surprise live guest performance at Frangipani with DJ Gregoire on the decks, who also happened to have some of Heidi's club hits.

I hope she can come back to Asia again soon! I always have a crazy fun time when she is around...

Heidi Vogel at No Black Tie with Valtinho

Heidi and ValtinhoShantini and Paul.
Roslan, Joanna B. and Joanne Kam.

Heidi, Valtinho, Joanna and Evelyn.
Heidi, Valtinho and the rest of the musicians, Willy Rebano, Norman and Rik Omar were simply quite fantastic!

Heidi really blew everyone away with her incredible voice and powerful emotional impact. It's no wonder she's been touring Jazz festivals all over the world, performed at the Royal Albert Hall and has been the singer for the Cinematic Orchestra for the past two years.
It was a really, really special night at No Black Tie; a full house and the audience was almost in shock, being uplifted by the sublime. Seriously, I was so awed and proud of Heidi. We've been really good friends since we were kids and it was so fabulous to finally have her here in Malaysia.

The Cinematic Orchestra just finished touring in Australia but they'll be in Singapore, at the Esplanade on 20th March 2009!
