An old proverb says, 'It takes a village to a child,' and that rings true to staging a well-loved musical, such as Jonathan Larson’s 'tick, tick…BOOM!,' which closes today at Carlos P. Romulo Auditorium, RCBC Plaza, Makati City.

In Jonathan Larson’s semi-autobiographical musical, 'tick, tick…BOOM!' the character of Michael is loosely based on the composer-lyricist’s best friend Matt O’Grady.

Media outlets Culture Nurtures and BroadwayWorld have jointly launched their docuseries titled “Behind The Curtains,” featuring Filipino scenographer Mio Infante. In the series’ first episode, he takes the audience to his main set at “tick, tick…BOOM!” a musical by Jonathan Larson and staged by 9 Works Theatrical.

On set, BroadwayWorld recently sat down with Vien King and Kayla Rivera, co-stars in 9 Works Theatrical’s current restaging of Jonathan Larson’s musical “tick, tick…BOOM!”

Jon (Jef Flores, Khalil Ramos), the protagonist in Jonathan Larson's 'tick, tick.... BOOM!' is a struggling composer who is days away from turning 30. He can’t help but hear that internal clock clicking: he doesn’t want to turn a year older without something groundbreaking to show.

9 Works Theatrical’s restaging of Jonathan Larson’s semi-autobiographical musical “tick, tick…BOOM! has officially opened, and BroadwayWorld has the first dibs on these official production photos taken by Reine Bantang.

In a one-night-only encore of “Louder than Words,” the finale number from Jonathan Larson’s pre-'Rent,' 'tick, tick…BOOM!' TV-film star (now theater actor) Khalil Ramos sang those lines, then faced the audience throwing a nudge and a wink—and we all knew what he meant. Ironic.

Professional theater newcomer Khalil Ramos embraces the stage, along with more seasoned stage actors Reb Atadero and Tanya Manalang, as he rehearses the blocking of “Sunday” from Jonathan Larson-penned musical “tick, tick…BOOM!” for the first time.

With the birth of a new theater company, Tanghalang Una Obra, whose creatives were closely associated with Gantimpala Theater Foundation, comes 'Ibarra,' a reworking of the latter’s yearly production of 'Kanser,' based on Dr. Jose Rizal’s first novel, 'Noli Me Tangere.' But this time, it presents the events from 'Kanser' from one point of view: that of the title role, essayed by multi-award-winning TV and film actor Piolo Pascual, in his professional theater debut.

At 46, Piolo Pascual, the Philippines' ultimate heartthrob, has proven his bankability as a star in TV and film. But in June this year, he gets to revisit where his love for acting began.

Hit jukebox musical RAK OF AEGIS is streaming online this weekend, August 7 (Saturday) and 8 (Sunday)--right smack Metro Manila's return to an enhanced quarantine due to the threats of the COVID-19 Delta variant.

In its seventh season, the original Filipino hit musical from Philippine Educational Theater Association (PETA) titled 'Rak of Aegis,a?? which features the popular songs of the Aegis band, returns onstage from July to September this year with new famed artists to join its original and recurring cast members.

It has been a very busy theater season in Manila. The past months saw the premiere of productions offering different and often intriguing facets of life, which naturally would solicit interest into the prying eyes of the theater-going public. With so much theater goings-on, 'Guadalupe The Musical' stands tall as a beloved reminder of the nation's historical devotion and adherence to 'popular religiosity.'
