RHB BANKING GROUP BRINGS PUTERI GUNUNG LEDANG THE MUSICAL SEASON 3 BACK TO KUALA LUMPUR
In support of the local performing arts, the RHB Banking Group brings the hit musical production, Puteri Gunung Ledang the Musical (PGLM), back to the Malaysian entertainment scene come February 2009. Back by popular demand, this will be the third season of the PGLTM in the country. The previous two seasons had received overwhelming response from avid performing arts fans and the general public alike.
“Puteri Gunung Ledang the Musical proved to be a national phenomenon when it was staged here in Kuala Lumpur, twice, in 2006 and it went on to create a stir on the Singaporean shores later in the year. The secret, I believe, lies in the familiar storyline with a very rich cultural heritage that was brought to life by the superb, flawless performance by a team of highly talented entertainers from the local theatre scene. RHB is proud to be able to bring back this production not only for those who have an aesthetic appreciation for the arts and cultural heritage, but also for our clients as a way of thanking them for their continuous support towards the Group,” said Michael J. Barrett, the Group Managing Director of the RHB Banking Group.
When asked about PGLM’s return, Tiara Jacquelina, who holds the lead role of Puteri and is the Executive Producer, said, “It’s wonderful knowing you have the best of the best working together on your team, and all of them challenging themselves to do better. We have a great synergy amongst us, great respect and admiration for each other’s work, and each of us continuously energizes the other, that’s something you can’t plan for – it’s either there or it’s not. The Arts is a powerful unifying force amongst people and with the growing support and generosity of patrons of the Arts like RHB, the public can develop their appreciation of the Arts, which is integral to the soul of any country.”
“We have enjoyed tremendous success from this production, and we are very excited to be able to bring it back for a third season. We are also very pleased to be able to collaborate with the RHB Banking Group for this season; it brings to mind that regardless of how much has evolved in this fast-paced, industrialized society, the love of the arts is still very much alive,” said Boudeng Edruce, General Manager of Enfiniti Productions.
The RHB Banking Group has previously sponsored numerous performances and shows in pursuit of supporting performing arts, and this time the Group is very pleased to work with Enfiniti Productions in bringing back PGLTM. The Group looks forward to presenting an equally excellent – if not better – show to the public this time round.
