SHOUT! is the mod musical magazine that brings back the beautiful birds and smashing sounds that made England swing in the 60's.
SHOUT! flips through the years like a musical magazine and takes you back to the music, the fashion and the freedom of the 60's! This smashing revue tracks five groovy gals as they come of age during those liberating days that made England swing! Join this non-stop journey through the infectious and soulful pop anthems and ballads that made household names of stars like Petula Clark, Dusty Springfield and Lulu. SHOUT! uses letters to an advice columnist, true confessions, quizzes and advertisements as a frame for terrific new arrangements of such chart-topping hits as "To Sir With Love," "Downtown," "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me," "Son of A Preacher Man," and "Goldfinger." With its irresistible blend of hip-swiveling hits, eye-popping fashions and psychedelic dances from the 60's, this fun-filled musical will make you want to throw your head back and SHOUT!
Presented in English with Malay subtitles.

There is something about the music of the early 1900s. It was such an exciting time for jazz and blues. Radio stations were mushrooming all over America and the likes of Bessie Smith, Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald were on the rise.
Now almost a century later, the recordings of these greats still sit on the shelves of music lovers all over the world.
In Love Journey, you'll be transported back in time to a different era with music from the 1920s through to the 1950s. Malaysia's jazz legend Michael Veerapen and entertainment personality Joanna Bessey will be performing standards like Love Me or Leave Me, Cry Me a River, I Loves You Porgy, St. Louis Blues and Bye Bye Blackbird.
