Must-see theater event: ‘Forbidden Broadway’s Greatest Hits’ at BGC
Something different to do this summer, especially if you love those classic Broadway showtunes!

Upstart Productions, together with BGC and the city of Taguig follows in the fashion of offering free theater in the park, similar to New York’s Shakespeare in the Park held at Central Park during the summers. It’s free for residents and employees of Taguig and ticket mechanics for non residents/ non employees are a deal no one should pass up.

Forbidden Broadway’s Greatest Hits, which premiered Off- Broadway and is created and written by Gerard Alessandrini, is a musical parody of all the well-known and loved Broadway musicals from generations past. 

I happened to be present when the four performers were rehearsing for the show and I must say the caliber of singers in this show is world class! Theater actors Reb Atadero, Liesl Batucan, Caissa Borromeo and Lorenz Martinez star, while Joel Trinidad directs. 

Forbidden Broadway will be shown in Kasalikasan Park, De Jesus Oval, Bonifacio Global City on May 23, 24 and 25 .The show starts at exactly 6pm and will last for approximately 90 minutes. Free shuttle for the show is also provided and pick ups will be at 5:00, 5:20 and 5:40 pm at Bonifacio High Street Activity Center located at 9th Avenue near Nike and Krispy Kreme.

To get free tickets for non-residents, just present a receipt worth P1,500 from retail stores or restaurants from either Bonifacio High Street, the Fort Entertainment Complex, Crossroads, Bonifacio Stopover,  One & Two Parkade or the Mind Museum. 

Tickets are limited so you may want to secure them now. For more information, visit Bonifacio Global City’s Facebook page here.  – Rappler.com
