Remember about the post whereby there's this Barbie & the 12 dancing princesses musical performance which I missed a couple of days ago at Raffles City?

Well, the girly girl in me caught it yday whilst I was waiting for my bf to meet me there after work. Arrived at Raffles City at around 615pm (my workplace is like a 10 mins walk from Raffles City) and procceeded to (window)shop around for half an hour and bought something for my bf (not gonna tell what it is dear, it's a secret *evil laughter*) and went over to the corridor on the 2nd level facing the stage to watch the performance.

Waited for a good 20 mins before the performance started. There were so many little girls dressed in pink, frocks and fairy wands together with their parents seated near the stage waiting in anticpation. Some were even shaking their hips and twirling on the spot to the music that was blasting from the hi-fi. Cute!

In the audience, I spotted a couple of cute lil boys waiting to catch the show too. My bro (when he was young) wouldn't be caught dead with a Barbie doll.

Anyway, the performance soon started and a lil answer-a-qn-and-win-a-prize segment was initiated before the muscial started. They were so many lil kiddos raising their hands and jumping when asked if they knew the answers to the questions. So freakingly responsive haha... Just love the enthusiam of lil kiddos. I think they won some Barbie stickers and souvenirs etc.

The emcee also got the kiddos to start clapping their hands and shout 'Barbie' to 'wake' the princesses to get onto the stage. Couldn't really see clearly the faces of the ladies (probably learnt ballet before) impersonating Barbie and the Dancing Princesses but they pretty gorgeous from where I was looking on. And they dance realli well. My fave *blush* is Princess Edeline (dressed in orange gown), she look so darn sweet and chio on the figurine box but for some weird reason, I dun see her doll on sale. Someone please enlighten me. I wanna see if the real toy looks as good as what is printed on the box.

Summary of story: Barbie in the 12 Dancing Princesses is the story of Barbie as Genevieve, 1 of 12 sisters who live happily with their father the king. Concerned that the high-spirited, independent princesses need more structure to become proper princesses, the king invites his cousin, the Dutchess Rowena to move into the castle. Rather than help, Rowina forbids the sisters from singing and dancing and squelches their individuality. The princesses discover a magical enchanted world and escape the tyranny of Rowena. But when Genevieve learns that their father's life is in danger, the sisters must unite to save the king and their kingdom.

But I din managed to watch the performance till the end. Left when Dutchess Rowena discover the secret enchanted place the princesses went to to dance.

Made me wish I was a lil girl still... *daydreaming*
