I felt as if I was 7 years old again. Last 25 June, Bespwen and I trooped to the Meralco Theater to watch Disney's Beauty and the Beast.
We both crossed our fingers that by some pure luck, it's KC Concepcion who will play the role of Belle. Lo and behold, this streamer welcomed us at the door. Yehey!
Kudos to her fabulous performance! She's so endearing and is a natural. But B and I particularly loved the outstanding set design, magnificent (sobra!) costumes and brilliant cast. Jet Pangan as the Beast and Calvin Millado as Gaston were a sight to watch as well. It was so magical and fun! I truly enjoyed that evening!
B and I were super annoyed though with our seatmates. To my left, the old lady kept singing all the songs, from Be Our Guest to the play's theme song, Beauty and the Beast. I wanted to hit her with her umbrella! To B's right was this old couple who kept commenting that Karel Marquez (KC's understudy) played a better Belle. Who the hell cares?!
But aside from that, the evening proved to be a memorable one. Great production! If you haven't seen it, go to Ticketworld now and fall in love with Beauty and the Beast.
