The Maritess Alava–Yong Foundation is set to produce the limited repeat
run of Binondo: A Tsinoy Musical. The musical will run for only 4
performances– July 12 (8pm), 13 (3pm and 8pm), and 14 (3pm) at the
Theatre at Solaire.
Spanning two decades and two countries, Binondo, A Tsinoy Musical
explores how love prevails even in times of racial prejudice, political
turmoil, absence and longing. From the original story by Rebecca
Chuaunsu, written by Ricky Lee, Gershom Chua, and Eljay Deldoc, the
musical first ran in the same venue from June 29 to July 8 last year.
It is directed by Joel Lamangan, with music by Von de Guzman,
choreography by Douglas Nierras, lighting design by Joey Nombres, and
production design and technical direction by Otto Hernandez.
Set in Manila’s pre-martial law days, the musical tells the story of
Lily, a Filipina night club singer, and Ah Tiong, a mainland Chinese
scholar, who fall in love during a tumultuous time. Vying for Lily’s
heart is her childhood friend Carlos, a local Chinese-Filipino who is
forced to confront his feelings for Lily.
