DICK LEE: CELEBRATING 40 YEARS IN MUSIC
Drama Centre, Aug 31
Home-grown music man Dick Lee marked four prolific decades with a cosy gig with, and for, family and friends. His body of work is a richly diverse one and spans the beloved national song Home to pop hit Paradise In My Heart to musicals such as Snow.Wolf.Lake.
He crooned Canto hits, duetted with his ex-wife Jacintha Abisheganaden and performed with his three brothers. In between, he reminisced on how he got his start on Talentime and his encounters with stars such as the late Leslie Cheung.
The thunderous standing ovation at the end was a tribute to both the man and his music.
