LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS


Merong halaman dito na kumakain ng tao.

Paano at bakit??


Yun ang aabangan mo

dahil nakakagulat at nakakamangha ito.


Mabilis sundan ang kwento. Nakakaaliw ang mga eksena. Masayang pakinggan ang mga kanta. The songs are worthy to be added to your Spotify playlist. Search them all and they will be found.


Karylleโ€™s movements are consistently graceful. Her performance for ๐˜š๐˜ฐ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ๐˜ธ๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆย ๐˜›๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ตโ€™๐˜ดย ๐˜Ž๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏย is truly heartfelt. Nyoy Volanteโ€™s singing voice is beautiful, but it cannot be heard sometimes. Either his micโ€™s volume is too low or his voice is too soft. When he is speaking, the accent that heโ€™s doing tends to take over, making his words unclear. The relationship between the characters of Nyoy and Karylle didnโ€™t quite blossomโ€”probably because of their lack of chemistry.


On her debut performance as a theater actress, Sue Ramirez didnโ€™t disappoint. She added her own flavor to the character. Youโ€™d be satisfied with her song interpretations. Reb Atadero has a natural wit and charm thatโ€™s suited for the role. He is making some facial expressions thatโ€™s amusing to see. All of his performances are delightful. Reb and Sue look good together. Both of them gave an animated portrayal that helped in strengthening their relationship on stage.


Youโ€™d be amazed with Markki Stroemโ€™s consecutive costume and accent changes. David Ezraโ€™s quirky and over-the-top portrayal brought laughter and entertainment to the show. Everything that Audie Gemoraโ€™s doing is just right.


OJ Mariano has a scary aura and a huge monstrous voice that complemented his role. Although her presence lacks authority and terror, Julia Serad is successful in serving all the money notes. Consisting of Abigail Sulit, Paula Paguio and Mikee Baskiรฑas/Julia Serad, the Divas in trio are reliable showstoppers and their harmony is heaven to the ears.


The music is sometimes louder than the person whoโ€™s singing. Some scenes need a smoother pacing and delivery to better highlight special moments. The musical is spoken and sung in full English. Thereโ€™s no Filipino flavor to this foreign play, but it would be appreciated if they added some.


There are 2 sets of lead actors wherein SET A has Karylle & Nyoy and SET B has Sue & Reb. The former is more sane and grounded, while the latter is more fun and animated.


โ€œLittle Shop of Horrorsโ€ is based from a film of the same title. Itโ€™s not required to watch the 1989 classic movie, but youโ€™d appreciate this musical more if youโ€™ve already seen the movie. Movie clips are available on YouTube for free.


Pay a visit to the ๐˜“๐˜ช๐˜ต๐˜ต๐˜ญ๐˜ฆย ๐˜š๐˜ฉ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฑย ๐˜ฐ๐˜งย ๐˜๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜ณ๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜ดย and take home with you a souvenir of fun-filled memories. With all the little and big things their shop can offer, it would be horrendous not to watch this musical.
