Actually, dahil nga po yun ako
00:16.0
parang ano yung, what? Feeling singer.
02:35.6
Ayun! Kongadas line na
02:41.5
Vas free siya annap Früh
02:49.3
Designang pag-iveling gown
02:52.3
Yes! Tapos turn here
02:58.3
Cross open, cross open
03:01.3
It's now the 29th of April
03:03.3
The show is on the 6th so
03:05.3
1 week to go before the show
03:07.3
And the thing is, I
03:09.3
missed I think 2 or 3 rehearsals
03:11.3
for Larawan because
03:13.3
meron akong taping so it's a bummer
03:15.3
Kaya today nag-request talaga ako
03:17.3
na ituruan ako ng Konga
03:19.3
Our next rehearsal is on May 2
03:21.3
I don't wanna be on stage na
03:23.3
lahat sila alam nila yung gagawa
03:25.3
tapos ako parang lost
03:27.3
parang I hate to do that
03:29.3
siyempre parang dapat mataas yung respeto mo sa mga
03:31.3
theater actors because
03:33.3
they're really really good
03:37.3
Actually dahil nga puyat ako, parang ano yung
03:39.3
wow, feeling singer
03:41.3
Hindi pero totoo, pakasakong narinig niya ba
03:49.3
Siguro mas sophisticated
04:09.3
Dancers will come in
04:11.3
Go to a straight line and then the fungal line
04:13.3
And then that's it
04:47.3
I think the challenge will be
04:49.3
to sing while dancing
04:51.3
kasi di ba parang
04:53.3
yun yung mahirap, yung gumagalaw ka
04:55.3
siyempre naiiba yung quality ng voice mo when you
04:57.3
are moving unlike yung static ka lang
04:59.3
naka ano ko lang sa audience
05:01.3
so I think that's going to be the
05:03.3
challenge because ayoko na ma-restrict yung
05:05.3
movement ko just so my voice
05:07.3
would sound better or ayoko rin naman
05:09.3
na sobrang naman yung
05:11.3
galaw ko na hindi ako nag-training
05:13.3
tapos wala na yung quality ng voice kasi
05:15.3
I think that's the essence of a musical
05:17.3
to be able to tell a story
05:19.3
while dancing and singing
05:43.3
in Act 2 and Act 3
05:45.3
Gotta act kasi iba yung
05:47.3
mga artista sa mga mga bidas
05:49.3
pero since cameo lang ako dito
05:51.3
sa Act 3 parang extra lang ako
05:53.3
dun sa isang scene and then epilogue
05:55.3
so there, iba-iba siya
06:05.3
Pero I haven't seen the final costume
06:07.3
pero na ano na ako
06:09.3
nasukatan, nakapag fitting
06:13.3
so isa pa yun sa mga challenges pala
06:15.3
kapag na-realize ko kapag magka-theater ka
06:17.3
kailangan pala yung mga damit
06:19.3
talagang nakakagalaw ka
06:21.3
it won't restrict you from doing
06:23.3
what you have to do on stage
06:25.3
Akala mo lang ako yung video
06:29.3
extra lang talaga ako dito guys
06:31.3
extra lang ako, nililinaw ko
06:33.3
hindi, ako naman kahit na extra lang ako
06:35.3
sabi ni kakay, hype man kasi kakay
06:37.3
sabi niya, ang galing mo
06:39.3
ang galing mo cheng, kaya mo yan
06:41.3
sabi ko, cheng, as if naman ano
06:43.3
ano lang naman ako, maliit lang naman
06:45.3
as in extra lang naman ako
06:47.3
sabi niya, there is no small role
06:49.3
only small actors
06:51.3
so I'm, you know, celebrating this
06:53.3
and actually, nakakatawa kasi
06:55.3
first time ko nakapunta dito
06:57.3
I mean, first time ko nakaikot sa Metropolitan Theatres
06:59.3
ang ganda pala, alam mo yung tuwing
07:01.3
out of the country tayo, gusto natin pumunta sa mga
07:07.3
theatres of broader opera houses
07:11.3
aminin na hindi ko pa nalilibot
07:13.3
yung iba-ibang theatres dito sa
07:17.3
mga landmarks natin
07:19.3
mga historical buildings natin
07:21.3
and I actually want to be able to do that
07:23.3
eventually, and I might share it
07:27.3
so it's nice to also promote it, you know
07:29.3
yeah, I'm Junking Mendoza
07:31.3
I'm the conservation project officer
07:33.3
of the Metropolitan Theatre
07:35.3
and at the same time, I am the
07:37.3
executive assistant of the NCCA chairman
07:39.3
the architectural design
07:41.3
of the Metropolitan Theatre
07:45.3
originated in the US
07:47.3
here in the Metropolitan Theatre
07:51.3
somehow Filipinized
07:53.3
medyo nag-incorporate yung architect
07:57.3
Filipino or mga tropical
08:01.3
kaya siya sinabing Filipinized
08:05.3
Actually, ang MET
08:07.3
ay multifunctional
08:09.3
we can host plays
08:17.3
and also for photo shoots
08:19.3
hindi lang yung mga shows
08:21.3
yung pinupuntahan sa MET
08:23.3
kundi lahat ng areas kasi
08:25.3
ay sinasabing nilang
08:29.3
so nakikurious yung mga tao
08:33.3
nakikurious sila sa plays
08:35.3
kaya po silang pupunta at nanonood sa MET
08:37.3
yung mga major events
08:41.3
Metropolitan Theatre ay
08:45.3
monthly na celebration
08:47.3
of the lives and works
08:49.3
of our national artists
08:51.3
kung gusto po nilang mag-reach
08:53.3
sa Metropolitan Theatre, mag-message
08:55.3
lang po sa Facebook page
08:59.3
Mag-dress rehearsals?
09:03.3
setting up the stage right now
09:05.3
so I guess, next time
09:07.3
we rehearse, that's going to be on stage
09:11.3
and it's going to be by the entire cast
09:13.3
and we will get to
09:15.3
feel the stage already
09:17.3
and the vibe that's going to be
09:21.3
and then, after that, I think
09:23.3
mag-dress rehearsals na rin kami
09:25.3
so, ganun pala yun
09:27.3
kailangan mo sinusot na yung dami
09:29.3
para alam mo yung mga mangyayari
09:31.3
first time ko to guys
10:27.3
So, of course, there's the movie
10:29.3
Larawan, a beautiful one
10:31.3
Nandun din sila, Paolo, and some of the
10:33.3
cast members of that movie is
10:35.3
going to be in this theatre musical
10:37.3
parang they are trying to stay
10:39.3
true to the original material
10:41.3
kasi nga, it's made by a national
10:43.3
artist, so parang hindi mo pwedeng
10:45.3
basta-basta baguhin, you have to give
10:47.3
respects to the ones who
10:49.3
actually did this and created
10:51.3
this beautiful, beautiful
10:53.3
material. Since it's a heritage
10:55.3
project, to celebrate
10:57.3
the National Artists Month, kasi
10:59.3
ang daming national artists na involved
11:03.3
Larawan ever since before until
11:07.3
it will only run for one night and
11:27.3
The world of theatre!
12:17.3
National Heritage Month din kasi
12:19.3
ang May, so this is very timely.
12:21.3
I guess parang tiniming
12:23.3
talaga nila perfectly yung release
12:25.3
nito or yung premiere nito
12:27.3
because we want to celebrate
12:29.3
our heritage and our
12:31.3
national artists and the
12:33.3
creative people behind this beautiful
13:31.3
ang daming sinong namatay
13:39.3
Si Elsa Montez kasi
13:41.3
is from New York, so she
13:43.3
brought conga here in the Philippines
13:45.3
pre-war. Kaya may
13:47.3
dancing, kasi yung karakter ko yung
13:49.3
i-estima dapat nung
13:51.3
larawan, but then
13:53.3
parang nakita niya lang yung larawan
13:55.3
on the surface level. Ibig sabihin
13:57.3
she is very vain, so
13:59.3
imbes na makita niya yung totoong
14:01.3
message or yung nilalaman
14:03.3
ng larawan, ang nakita niya
14:05.3
yung mga damit. Of course,
14:07.3
at that time, siguro during the 1940s,
14:09.3
she's like a fashion icon
14:11.3
of the Philippines. She's the it girl of the
14:13.3
Philippines because
14:15.3
she comes from a wealthy family
14:19.3
nakita niya yung surface lang,
14:21.3
yung mga suot nila. So, na-inspire siya
14:23.3
na gayahin yung mga damit
14:25.3
sa larawan. And so,
14:27.3
nag-break out siya into a dance,
14:51.3
Oh, it's so, so true.
14:53.3
Pag ako'y napupungga,
14:55.3
para kailan kita.
15:41.3
Actually, naisip po nga yung nagsisisi ako,
15:43.3
sana pala nung bata ako, mas sumali-sali pa ako.
15:45.3
But then, bata ako,
15:49.3
So, wala na nga ng tulog.
15:51.3
Paano pa magli-theater?
15:53.3
22 years na pong kuyat.
15:55.3
So, I'm just so happy that
15:57.3
I get to do this.
15:59.3
At 35, this is one of the things
16:01.3
that I was able to take off my bucket list.
16:03.3
So, ang sarap din na naggagawa.
16:05.3
And before you move on to the next chapter
16:09.3
siyempre lahat naman tayo patanda.
16:13.3
I was able to do this at 35.
16:17.3
Thank you, madam.
16:35.3
My feet and boobs.
16:41.3
May kininam na ako din.
16:45.3
May kininam na ako.
