Theatre Night
This
theatre night is a heartfelt message from us, young people, and to the adults,
especially parents, who have played their role in learing about child sexual
abuse.
On the 27th April 2002,
it was the night for us to perform and to send a very inportant message to the
adults and parents. It started at 7.30 pm and ended at around 10.30 pm. It
started off with giving some certificates to a few of the parents for completing
a 2-day parent workshop on Child Sexual Abuse.
It's show time!! A young
professional dancer, Teresa Chian gave a solo performance where she potrays a
child overcoming fears and conflicting emotions to become a strong and
independent person.
Besides that, there were
singing by two very talented people accompanied by someone on the piano. When
they were singing, it was such a surprise to see some gentlemens like Syam,
Khairul and Sean who invited some of the datins and and some danced with their
mothers to dance with them.
There was also another singing performance by a girl entitled " Angel"
with her sister on the piano.
There was also a very
entertaining modern malay dance and a cultural dance by eight very talented
people.
The main feature of the
night, a drama entiltled "The Power of One" written and performed by
us, the GOlden Kids Club Young Achievers.We had delivered a surprisingly deep
understanding of the issue and our drama had delivered a message that when one
takes the trouble to learn about child sexual abuse, many children can be saved.
This story revolves around families of three colleagues. When a lady learns
about childs sexual abuse, she was able to support and help those families.
Everything has to come to
an end. When we reached the end, all the performers recieved a certificate and
went up on stage. As we held hands, we sang "We are the children" and
so did the audience too. As we hugged each other, we left the hall and went
home. This was another experience for us and an exiting one too.
