Rockwell’s Proscenium Theater makes its grand debut, heralding not just a new stage but a hub for immersive, unforgettable theatrical experiences in the heart of Metro Manila.
JM Cabling and PJ Rebullida, dancers and choreographers, learn, unlearn, and relearn from each other. They currently work together in a production of the Tony Award-winning musical 'Once On This Island,' book and lyrics by Lynn Ahrens, and music by Stephen Flaherty, co-produced by 9 Works Theatrical and Ticket2Me.
Garrett Bolden, a Sparkle GMA Artist Center talent, perfectly fits the computer genius Tom Collins role. A 15th-anniversary presentation of 9 Works Theatrical, this Jonathan Larson’s Pulitzer Prize-winning musical returns to the stage at the Carlos P. Romulo Auditorium until the first week of June 2024, where Bolden shares the stage with Anthony Rosaldo (Roger), Reb Atadero (Mark), and Ian Pangilinan (Mark), among others.
To celebrate its 15th anniversary, 9 Works Theatrical brings back 'Rent,' Jonathan Larson’s Pulitzer Prize-winning rock musical. This restaging promises a unique theatrical experience, offering a fresh perspective on the beloved classic and placing HIV/AIDS front and center.
Principal casts Ricky Davao (Leo), Joel Nunez (Anton), Raul Montesa (Raul), Nenel Arcayan (Josie), Jep Go (Rico), Shaun Ocrisma (Mart), Maronne Cruz (Dalai), and Hazel Maranan (Agnes) led the curtain call on opening night, Oct. 20.
A new original Filipino musical about hope and redemption, 'Silver Lining,' has recently welcomed friends from the media to its rehearsal space in Makati City. Cast members, including TV film actor Ricky Davao, performed a musical excerpt, 'Atin ‘To,' before their guests.
ABS-CBN has reported that Rhea Dumdum-Bautista and Rhosam Villareal Prudenciado Jr., PJ Rebullida, Nicole Primero, and Chantal Primero, as well as independent dance companies such as Airdance, Galaw.Co, and Daloy, have created the LikhaPH Sustainability, a 7-month program to address the rise of unemployment among dance professionals.
The good news is that 'Eto Na! Musikal nAPO!,' an original Filipino play set into music by APO Hiking Society's hit songs, is like no other OPM jukebox musical we have seen in recent memory. Most of the jukebox musicals staged in Manila have an entirely fictional story (e.g. 'Ako si Josephine,' '3 Stars and a Sun' ) or have a plot that's leaning towards social commentary (e.g 'Rak of Aegis'), and, more often than not, try to repackage the sound of the original versions of the songs to make them more current and theatrical (e.g 'Ang Huling El Bimbo,' 'I Remember a Boy'). In their first foray into producing an original material, 9 Works Theatrical and Globe Live go for a more sentimental story, an ultimate throwback to the mid-1970s, with a plot that's loosely based on the early years of the original members of the APO Hiking Society.
