"Ang Huling El Bimbo" credits Dexter Santos, direction and choreography; Dingdong Novenario, book; Floy Quintos, additional scenes and dialogues; Myke Salomon, musical arrangement; and Fullhouse Theater Company and Newport World Resorts, lead producers.

The award-winning musical has been performed more than 100 times since its premiere in 2018 until its sold-out reruns in March 2019 and July 2019.

In 2020, a recorded 2019 performance was made available for streaming on ABS-CBN Entertainment's social pages. The streaming event raised more than PHP 12 million in donations for ABS-CBN Foundation and garnered 7 million views in 48 hours.
