12 Oktober lalu pertama kali ke Teater Salihara! Akhirnya.. Setelah sekian lama hanya dengar namanya dari teman-teman. Pulang kerja langsung menuju tempatnya di bilangan Pasar Minggu, berharap tidak terjebak macet yang berlebihan. Dilarang merekam atau mengambil gambar selama pertunjukkan berlangsung, jadi sama sekali tidak bisa di-share bagaimana isinya pertunjukkan. Mungkin memang harus lihat sendiri supaya spesial. Pertunjukkan ini berbahasa Inggris, sungguh menyiksa. Biasa lihat film pakai sub title soalnya. Tidak sedikir part yang membuat saya cuma bengong-bengong bego atau telat ngerti di saat jalan cerita udah jauh ke depan. Hehe. Tapi overall saya sangat terhibur dengan cerita ini. (Untung saya udah baca sinopsis ceritanya di selebaran yang dibagikan penyelenggara). Para pemain dengan pintarnya mencuri perhatian di setiap segmen yang ada. Tidak hanya drama, tapi juga suguhan secara keseluruhan. Cahaya, warna-warna, suara-suara, dan ragam instrumen musik yang dibunyikan. Kegiatan positif di suatu hari Selasa di kota Jakarta.
Salihara juga menyediakan kantin dan tempat sholat yang nyaman, selain keindahan arsitektur dan interiornya. Jadi tetap merasa tenang kalaupun kebetulan waktu sholat datang. Dengan pengalaman kali ini ada pelajaran yang berharga banget. Tandanya saya harus banyak latihan lagi mendengarkan, membaca, dan bicara dalam bahasa Inggris. Mungkin lain kali saya akan datang ke acara seperti ini lagi di kemudian hari. Hihi.
About Synopsis
Luna's troupe are on their way to a performance at Salihara, but their car has broken and they are very, very lost. Luna insists that they continue the performance anyway, in the middle of a forest in front of 'absolutely no audience' and so the performance unfolds.
