THEATER SOUNDS FROM RICO BLANCO

I saw this happen a few weeks ago. During the curtain call of the new original Filipino musical "Liwanag sa Dilim," the cast requested the audience to please keep the plot of the show a secret. And they did.

I am sure that many were aching to tell everyone about what the musical was about but they all kept silent. I wanted so much to extol the deliciously twisted minds who came up with the concept but I also chose to wait. That is until today, with the first run of "Liwanag sa Dilim" now on its last legs, the embargo has been lifted and I can tell you all about "Liwanag Sa Dilim" or "LSD" as I like to refer to it.
