The entire company is donating their time
and services pro-bono. In addition to these unique performances, there
will be an online auction of memorabilia and gala night tickets
(including hotel accommodation) for the opening nights of Les Misérables
(Broadway and Melbourne, Australia); Miss Saigon (London).
Along with Bouberg Productions, Enda
Markey and the performers who waived their talent fees, “Do You Hear the
People Sing?” is the latest effort of RWM in a series of fundraisers to
help in the relief and rebuilding phase following the destruction
brought about by the typhoon—the first being the “1tayo” relief
operation in partnership with other players in the industry and the
second being the “Kami Naman Ang Taya” benefit concert held at the
NPAT last December 3. Funds raised from this latest production and
auction will go towards the rebuilding programs for the survivors of the
typhoon. The event hopes to raise funds with the goal of building 200
homes in areas ravaged by Typhoon Yolanda through Habitat for Humanity
Philippines.
Reflecting on their long association with
the Philippines, composer Claude-Michel Schönberg said, “The Philippines
gave me the voices of Miss Saigon, my daughter Margot and the joy of
seeing Filipino babies adopted all around the world for nearly two
decades already from my Manila orphanage, Sun and Moon.”
Alain Boublil added “Creating Miss Saigon
with those numerous talented Filipino artists was the answer to a
prayer. These two concerts bring this extraordinary adventure back to
life and a chance for us to modestly contribute to those lives that were
shattered. Let’s hear the people sing!”
“Do You Hear the People Sing?”
will feature the music and lyrics of Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel
Schönberg, creators of Les Misérables and Miss Saigon. It will run
from January 29 to 30, 8pm at the Newport Performing Arts Theater,
Manila, Philippines.
