zsa zsa beats darna!

2 sundays ago, i finally went to watch "zsa zsa zaturnnah" (thanks to abby), after having heard raves from friends for months. and it was well worth the wait. i saw it at the new PETA theatre, and expectedly, i ran into friends and acquaintances there. a LOT of them, too. of course, each one happily exclaimed: "you're here!"--which sort of made me feel guilty about not telling people when i'm in town. but the problem with that is, it's not humanly possible to meet up with them the weekends that i am in town. but i digress...

"zsa zsa" was such a fun experience. all the actors and actresses were fantastic, the music was great, and the story is "tight". the story delves into social realities (poverty, diaspora), personal crises (need for acceptance, love), and the nature of "celebrity" or "fame". eula valdez acted and sang really well. and the audience was very appreciative. i loved it so much! they're re-staging it at CCP in june, so try to catch it if you haven't seen it! or see it again!
