Lea Salonga is a performer par excellence. I cannot begin to enumerate the many honors she has brought the country. When she won the Sir Lawrence Olivier Awards and the Tony Awards for her portrayal as Kim in Miss Saigon, she put the Philippines on the map. Not that it was never there. But she made us shine even more.
I hope you enjoy this one as well!

thank you, deb! stay with me ;)!
I admire her voice/singing & acting. What a talented personality. Loved her Miss Saigon, watched it here in SG but on different cast & group. Kim was played by Monique Wilson already but worth watching. Overall performance is superb and awesome. They are all talented and good. Too bad, the Esplanade has not been completed by that time. Anyway, play is more important than the theater. I just missed her Cinderella this year.
ReplyDeletemonique wilson is equally good, she was in miss saigon, i would think. mayad ka pa daw, nakita mo ina. thanks, rhey!
