Heres the performance's review taken from Berita Harian's article about Bangsawan Cilik Putri Anggun Delima.

25 Julai 2009

EKSTRA!

REVIU PEMENTASAN
Segar, lucu & mendidik

Pelakon cilik Sriwana berjaya hayati dialog bangsawan

Oleh
Nadiputra

Pementasan: Bangsawan Cilik Putri Anggun Delima

Karya: Rilla Melati Bahri

Arahan: Izzat Mohd Yusoff, persembahan Sriwana

Tarikh: Ahad, 19 Julai, 4 petang dan 8 malam, Panggung Victoria.

SELEPAS pementasan, apabila saya meminta komen Penaung Sriwana, Encik Hawazi Daipi, Setiausaha Parlimen Kanan, Kementerian Tenaga Manusia dan Kementerian Kesihatan, mengenai bangsawan baru ditontoninya, sambil tersenyum lebar dan menghela nafas, beliau mengaku seronok dan terhibur.

Presiden Sriwana, Cik Fauziah Hanom, pula gamam dan berasa takut mahu bercakap.

Yalah 'takut masuk bakul angkat sendiri.' Saya akur.

Skrip bangsawan cilik Putri Anggun Delima (PAD) berat olahannya dari segi penularan kejadian yang lebih condong ke arah ciri-ciri penulisan naskhah TV.

Namun pengarah Izzat Mohd Yusoff mampu menggembeling seratus peratus tenaga pelakon cilik Sriwana (kecuali pelakon undangan Mahadi Shor dan Zainal Ihim, juga anggota Sriwana), para tenaga kerja pentas 'muda belia' Sriwana, ke satu persembahan teater kanak-kanak yang amat menarik, memberangsangkan dan menghibur. Tahniah dan syabas.

Naskhah Rilla Melati menuntut pelbagai keperluan dan alur-alur persembahan yang menggerak nadi penceritaan teater kanak-kanak yang begitu segar, lucu, seram dan mendidik.

Rata-rata hampir kesemua pelakon cilik berjaya menghayati dialog bangsawan. Mereka mampu mengekang kehambaran pementasan dengan telatah dan ragam lucu kanak-kanak yang cuba dewasakan diri sebagai Sultan Alam Shah (Nazrul Fathmi), Putri Anggun Delima (Nadia Nur Diyana), Permaisuri Hina (Sharafana), Puteri Cempaka (Qistina), Puteri Melur (Eliyasari), Syaer (Emilia Ezzaty), Indra Safri (Emmireen), Helmi (Shafiq), para pengawal dan sebagainya.

Kesudahannya, 'cute', bisik seorang penonton yang tidak dapat menahan ketawa dek ragam lakonan kanak-kanak yang 'katik-katik' cuba menjadi orang besar.

Bukan mudah menggeletek penonton, sekalipun ia diperankan oleh orang dewasa. Namun kematangan Rilla menyelami naluri dan jiwa kanak-kanak melalui naskhahnya membantu Izzat hidupkan naskhah yang mencabar kreativitinya sebagai pemain teater.

Beliau jarang sekali berdepan dengan realiti dan kerenah bangsawan, apatah lagi mengarahnya. Dengan khidmat nasihat tatasusila bangsawan daripada para pelakon veteran Sriwana, Azman Shariff, dan isteri, Mahyunis Mahfudz, serta pembimbing bengkel lakonan kanak-kanak Sriwana, Norsiah Ramly, Izzat berjaya mengulit kerumitan PAD daripada pengalamannya berdamping dengan almarhumah Nenek Rifin, almarhum Haji Shariff Medan, Pak Hamid Ahmad serta Atin Amat.

Keyakinan Sriwana memberi laluan kepada para pereka tari remaja mereka - Hafizah Jumaeh, Zannury Zakarea, Mohd Nizarfauzi Norlie, Fauzi Anwar, Aziela Shaik Abdul Rahim, Muhd Hazmi Ghazali dan Siti Asmida - berhasil melahirkan ragaman kesinambungan cerita yang berlainan, segar dan menarik.

Pencahayaan Izzat dan Mohd Nor memberi aura dan olahan suasana yang tepat dengan alam dan pakaian para penari, props, set serta watak yang beraneka.

Kepelbagaian warna suasana dapat dirasakan dengan penukaran pencahayaan yang bijak pada setiap adegan yang lain - cepat dan menghakis pembuangan waktu pementasan.

Kerumitan mengendalikan sulaman rentetan adegan yang diilhamkan Rilla diatasi dengan baik oleh pengurus pentas Mohd Alfyan Ariff dan pembantunya, Hakim Sham, serta para petugas lainnya di sebalik tabir.

Ia menunjang pementasan ini dengan pelaksanaan dan koordinasi penukaran set, pencahayaan, props dengan penuh disiplin, sekalipun masih terdapat ruang-ruang yang masih boleh diperkemas. Namun kepelbagaian senario yang diterapkan dalam naskhah menjadikannya seakan santapan istimewa Hikayat Seribu Satu Malam yang dimaniskan dengan gelagat seratus peratus pelakon cilik Sriwana.

Cerita yang berkisar daripada pengembaraan Helmi ke alam bangsawan menerusi ekspedisi ke taman bunga kelihatan klise.

Namun ia mantap dengan insiden-insiden penerokaan Helmi ke tragedi di istana Sultan Alam Shah terhadap konspirasi Putri Anggun Delima yang dianiaya oleh ibu tirinya, Permaisuri Hina, kerana cemburukan puteri-puteri kandungnya, Puteri Cempaka dan Puteri Melor, yang konon tidak diberi perhatian oleh Sultan.

Dengan khidmat nenek kebayan, lakonan penari remaja Sriwana, Elsi Melissa, yang begitu menarik, Putri Anggun Delima disihir menjadi bunga. Kelaziman bangsawan, akhirnya PAD diselamatkan dengan penawar susu harimau beranak muda - diperolehi daripada seorang pendeta oleh Helmi berserta Jelon dan Capte - 'tipikal' watak penglipur lara bangsawan yang berjaya menyuntik humor oleh Zainal Ihim.

Sumbangan Mahadi Shor sebagai Jin juga memporak-perandakan suasana tegang dan lucu. Sebagai pelawak berwibawa, Mahadi dan Zainal berjaya menyelit-suai (adlib) beberapa kegenjotan dialog kanak-kanak (yang terlupa atau terseliuh), menjadikan suasana lebih gamat dan menggelikan hati.

Pujian juga harus diberi kepada Riau Rhythm Chambers yang diundang khas melestarikan muzik latar PAD.

Sriwana tidak terlepas daripada tradisi warisan bangsa dalam apa jua bentuk persembahannya. Bangsawan cilik ini dapat mendidik, menyuntik apresiasi seni pusaka warisan bangsa kepada anggota- anggota ciliknya dengan baik dan cermat sekali.

Legend has it that the world’s biggest flower, the Rafflesia was once a beautiful princess…

Helmi gets absorbed by a book during a school excursion about the flora and fauna of Borneo, in particular the Rafflesia. Tasked to do a school project on "saving the environment" Helmi and his good friend Rozana decide to convince Mrs Wong on a creative approach in doing their class presentation not knowing that an adventure was about to begin.

Inside the palace of 'Sultan Alam Shah' the evil Queen Hina plots to get rid of her stepdaughter Princess Anggun Delima. Jealous of her husband’s love for the princess, Queen Hina plans for the princess to be married off and taken away from the palace. When her plans failed, she consults the help of a witch who gave her a magic potion that will turn the princess into an inhabitant of the forest, permanently detached from her father the King, forever.

What can the magic potion really do? Will the evil Queen get away with her hideous plans? Can the princess be saved in time?

A tale told to the audience through the eyes of two present day students, this play will emphasize the importance of treasuring friendship and family and the need to create a peaceful and harmonious society. A special platform to display the talents of the children's drama workshop, this performance is Sriwana's maiden effort at reviving the art of "bangsawan" to be appreciated by the younger generation of theatre goers.

Cyberita Harian - 26hb November 2008

GEMBIRA PELAPIS MUDA HIDUPKAN SRIWANA

SAYA, sebagai mantan presiden, dan beberapa mantan anggota Sriwana, mengucapkan tahniah kepada Cik Fauziah Hanom Yusof kerana dipilih sebagai presiden Sriwana bagi tahun kelima berturut-turut dalam mesyuarat agungnya baru-baru ini.

Saya juga ucapkan syabas kepada barisan pelapis muda baru yang sanggup memikul tanggungjawab memimpin persatuan yang telah berusia lebih 50 tahun itu.
Sedang ramai muda-mudi sekarang kian dipengaruhi dan giat mengembangkan kesenian asing, wujud sebilangan muda-mudi Melayu yang gigih memajukan seni budaya bangsa secara sukarela tanpa mengharapkan sebarang keuntungan.

Kami juga mengalu-alukan laporan kegiatan perkumpulan itu yang 'lebih bermakna' daripada tahun-tahun sebelumnya.

Mereka berpeluang menyertai Pesta Kesenian Asia ke-10 di China pada September lalu yang turut disertai para aktivis seni Mongolia, Malaysia, Turkey, Myanmar dan lain-lain.
Meeka juga berjaya menganjurkan pertunjukan muzikal 100% Cilik, persembahan dikir barat secara besar-besaran daripada kalangan kanak-kanak bengkelnya, Pesta Raya 2008 di Esplanade di samping menjayakan Pesta Tari Serumpun II anjuran Majlis Pusat pada Mei lalu dan beberapa kegiatan lain.

Mudah-mudahan dengan kepimpinan jawatankuasa baru ini, pelbagai lagi kegiatan dan kemajuan akan dapat dicapai kumpulan kesenian yang mapan ini.
