Swan Song – 最后梅好的回响
The Last Tribute to Anita Mui by Lezard Cheung
Swan Song – 最后梅好的回响 – The Last Tribute to Anita Mui.
Lezard Cheung, known as Singapore’s Anita Mui, will sing his very last this 1st Dec 2009 as he is permanently retiring from show business in favour of a spiritual life. One of his last acts as a performer will be to raise funds for the kids in India ( Project Juley ) to have a school to call their own, and get an education.
His friends, from all faiths, all walks of life, have all gathered to make this last concert truly special. From dancers, to magicians and even clowns, everyone is donating their time and effort in a bid to raise enough for the school to be built. The children in the mountains of India, near Tibet are unable to go to school, as the six months of winter prevents them from doing little else except survive. This school that will be built will not just educate, they will house the kids and give them free food, lodging and teaching.

Rainbow Funtasy – A Bubble, A Hope & A Dream
A Zephyhdom Production
Vivien Goh started Zephyhdom ( The One Stop Talent Source ) in 1995 when she was still 17 years old. After nearly 15years, she is going back to the roots, theatre. This performance is neither a musical nor pure theatre, it has elements of magic, mime, clowning, puppetry, ventriloquism, bubbles, juggling and balloon sculpting all rolled into one show. With a central theme of dreams, we hope that this show will touch the families watching this unique combination of fun and comedy with a poetic central storyline and instill in the kids a sense of hope, a bubble of a dream. Dreams are all too important, and Vivien Goh has experienced, together with her performers, how important it is to be able to dream, and dream BIG!
Performers that we known and love to watch will be in this show, Sweetheart the Clown, Kiki Tay the magician, Uncle Jimbo Magic, the silly Plasticine men, mascot characters and more! Totally fun, totally interactive, kids from 3 – 10 years old would enjoy the show immensely while parents will be able to appreciate the other artistic components.

About Project Juley
Education for Ladakhi children
Project Juley! is a long-term private initiative to provide Ladakhi children a chance at a better life. When completed, up to 200 children of Ladakh will enjoy free education, food and lodging at the planned school and hostel, with no strongs attached.
Geshe Tsewang Dorje is an eminent Buddhist scholar and an experienced teacher and administrator. He has undertaken this personal responsibility to build Ngari Institute of Buddhist Dialectics, a learning centre with comprehensive facilities to house the underprivileged children of Ladakh and provide them with a well-rounded education. This project was endorsed by the Office of His Holiness, the 14th Dalai Lama in September 2008.
After visiting Singapore in 2009, Geshela requested Lama Thubten Namdrol Dorje, founder and resident spiritual teacher of Thekchen Choling (Singapore), to help in this project. After understanding the needs of this project, Lama Dorje immediately instructed the community outreach arm of Thekchen Choling (Singapore) to aid in this project and named this Project Juley!.
In June 2009, Lama Dorje graced the opening of Geshe-la’s Jamtse Ling temple in Leh, the capital of Ladakh. During the trip, Lama Dorje and accompanying students were able to witness first-hand the difficult conditions of the Ladakhi villagers.
