Arnell Ignacio has joined the cast of Viva Atlantis Theatricals’ inaugural production “The Full Monty.” Ignacio will play Harold Nichols, one of six jobless men who set out to stage a strip show where they plan to go “the full monty”—or strip all the way.
MARK BAUTISTA, Arnel Ignacio, OJ Mariano, Jamie Wilson, Marco Sison and Niño Alejandro headline the newly formed Viva Atlantis Theatricals’ inaugural production, “The Full Monty,” which opened yesterday and runs until May 5 at the Carlos P. Romulo Auditorium, RCBC Plaza, Makati City.
The strip show of six grown men is just the come-on and crowd-drawer of Viva Atlantis Theatricals’ “The Full Monty.” The centerpiece of this musical really lies in the gradual revelation of the male heart and soul, piece by poignant piece.
VIVA ATLANTIS Theatricals’ production of “Disney’s Tarzan” opened yesterday and runs until July 7 at Meralco Theater.
Actors are usually called a “triple threat” when they do three things: act, sing and dance. Lex Marcos is an actor who betters that description: He also does set and lighting design. Actually, he also sings and dances. And he paints, too. Six disciplines, so, technically, he’s a “sextuple threat,” but who’s counting?
Towards the climax of Act II of “Disney’s Tarzan,” the short-lived Broadway musical running until Saturday at the Meralco Theater as Viva Atlantis Theatricals’ second offering of the year, its titular ape-man, torn between remaining with his adoptive gorilla family and following his newfound human friends back to England, frustratingly exclaims, “I’m so confused!”
