'Here Lies Love,' the musical based on the rise and fall of former First Lady Imelda Marcos, will be having its final show on Broadway this month because of low ticket sales.
"Here Lies Love" is a big step towards greater representation of Filipinos on Broadway. Comprising the all-Filipino cast are Arielle Jacobs, Jose Llana, Conrad Ricamora, Lea Salonga, Melody Butiu, Moses Villarama, Jasmine Forsberg, Reanne Acasio, Jaygee Macapugay, Julia Abueva and Renée Albulario.
The cast includes Arielle Jacobs as the former First Lady, Jose Llana as her husband the late dictator Ferdinand Marcos and Conrad Nicamora as the assassinated senator who criticized the couple Ninoy Aquino. Llana and Nicamora reprise their roles from the 2013 off-Broadway run. According to The Washington Post, "Here Lies Love" costs about $700,000 weekly to mount, but only makes about $500,000 to $620,000 each week.
Still, "Here Lies Love" will be taped for New York's Theatre on Film and Tape Archive, and plans are being developed to bring the musical to Japan and Australia.GCash provides users more protection when sending moneySleep advocates Heart Evangelista, Saab Magalona, LA Aguinaldo share tips for resting on timeCasa de Memoria announced that the eagerly awaited Segundo Auction is set to take place on November 18 at the Palacio de...
