Lorenzo the Musical : A Spectacular Show of Sights, Sounds, Lights and Acting!


Wazzup Pilipinas!

We are proud to be one of the online media partners of Lorenzo the musical which is currently running scheduled shows at the SDA Theater of St. Benilde.

The musical is an extremely extravagant offering of spectacular lighting, music and sound effects, costume, and acting.  Add to that several surprises you will never expect in a show as grand as this operatic performance. Plus you'll definitely be at awe when you see the humungous robot ala Voltes V coming out from the back stage.

I was having goosebumps seeing scenes after scenes of sensational acting and fancy outfits. The press preview attended by members of the media was a huge success of which I'm sure Christopher De Leon will be very proud seeing a lot of satisfied attendees.

The new original Filipino musical drew a standing ovation and its one of those rare moments when you will feel that you are truly proud to be a Filipino.




There was cocktails for media friends, partners, sponsors and organizers before the show and was attended by executive producer Christopher De Leon and his wife Sandy Andolong together with and teenage children, Maria Angelica " Mariel" De Leon (previously ran for Binibining Pilipinas) and Gabriel "Gab" De Leon (part of the cast of GMA 7's youth-oriented TV show Teen Gen).



WazzupPilipinas.com is also a proud online media partner of Lorenzo the musical. This is me with Christopher De Leon behind the back-drop where the name of Wazzup Pilipinas is located.



Some scenes of the show starring OJ Mariano (playing Laurence - an OFW on death row who shared his story to a Filipino female reporter) and Lorenz Martinez (playing St. Lorenzo Ruiz, the first Filipino saint of the Philippines canonized for his martyrdom in Japan).

You really have to watch the show to be impressed for our mere words will not be sufficient to describe the fascination we had for the play.

Each actor, on lead roles or bit player tasks were exemplary in their performances. You will be amazed by their awesome portrayal of their characters.

The set, costume and props were magical and enchanting as the lights, sound and music.
