The newest Original Filipino Musical Play is born, the
Chuva Choo Choo, the Mr.Kupido Musicale featuring the songs of Vehnee Saturno
will make you sing a long after watching, plus the laughter at your hearts is a
roar amidst all your problems. This play will make you realize that Saturno’s
contribution to Original Pilipino Music is really a legend, a name that many
generations of Pinoys grow up singing all his hits.
Chuva Choo Choo start with the story of two sisters and
plus one friend whom they consider a family as well, they are used to join
singing contest and ended up losers, until they witness a crime wherein they
have to go somewhere and hide, but fate has another plan for them and fame is
just a foot away. A love story, a gay bar turn comedy bar is the instrument for
the sisters to achieve their dreams.
International musical theater actress Joanna Ampil play
Dina while The Voice Philippines finalist Morisette Amon play Darla, the
singing prowess of this two ladies is in no question, they both give it with
flying colors, but it was surprising to see Amon doing comedy act on which she
really nailed it with good timing, especially her scene with Zandro, her love
interest in the story that gives a light kilig to the audiences.
But I must say that Via Antonio doing multiple roles is
such a hit, her delivery is really a joy on stage, she almost have six
different roles in this play with all the changing costumes needed as well. Edward Benosa as Zandro is an eye candy, his
cuteness on stage is a plus factor for this play.
The
songs like Sana Kahit Minsan, Bakit Pa, Forever Is Not Enough and others really
make you go to Videoke and birit one more time after watching it, of course if
those songs have meanings or value to your childhood or ex-flings is another
story to tell.
