Gentarasa 2007 – Titisan Cacamerba (Tempestuous Droplets)
Artists from People's Association
Gentarasa 2007 – Titisan Cacamerba is a musical capturing the moments in history that made the present-day Singapore Malays. Water droplets in their most natural state are the iconic elements in this musical – just as water changes forms, the story of the Singapore Malays has evolved from the time of Temasek to their successes of today.
Based on Guy Ghazali’s poem “Kerana Kita Adalah Satu” (Because We Are One), this production features a team of youth performers who have been practising community performing arts through the People’s Association, led by Artistic Director Mohd Fared Jainal, Mendaki’s Goh Chok Tong Youth Promise Award recipient.
With its engaging performers and dynamic luminaries, powerful musical soundtrack and impressive stage set, Gentarasa 2007 – Titisan Cacamerba is a moving account of Singapore’s Malay community.

Gentarasa 2007 Press Conference.
A press conference was held at the Peoples' Association on 24th May. Members of the press were present while Prof Dr.Yaacob Ibrahim, Minister of Environment & Water Resources, Minister in Charge of Muslim Affairs gave his speech.








After the speeches, we were given a sneak preview of Scene 2 and the finale.
Those dancers were good. The dialogues were humorous. It's a mixture of old and new Singapore with a slight risk on anachronism.
I salute the Artistic Director and his members for daring to stage such a play. You need an open mind to realise what the message is really about.
Read the poem of Guy Ghazali thoroughly and do not close your mind.
After the brief preview of the performance, members of the press started to interview the dancers.
