All That Glitz & Glamour on the Silver Screen

Back after a three-year hiatus, Dama Asia Productions are set to present All That Glitz & Glamour on the Silver Screen, a musical theatre concert that will relive the magic of signature songs of the Mandarin Golden Oldies era, from the 1930s-1960s. The show marks a comeback of sorts for the multiple award-winning and multilingual theatre company, who are renowned for their blending of East-West harmonies in their musical performances. We get a crash course on this era of music from Pun Kai Loon, the Artistic Director of Dama Asia, who is also the director and scriptwriter for this production, and we also find out what's in store from Yon Lynn, a vocal coach and artiste from All That Glitz & Glamour on the Silver Screen.
