Nino shines in Waitress MNL

rev3

Last November, Atlantis Theatrical staged the first international production of the hit Broadway show Waitress. The musical, a close adaptation of the 2007 film of the same name, is a current Broadway favorite with book by Jessie Nelson and music and lyrics by Grammy Award winner Sara Bareilles. The show tells the story of Jenna (Joanna Ampil), a diner waitress with an incredible talent for baking pies as she, along with her friends and co-workers Becky (Bituin Escalante) and Dawn (Maronne Cruz), navigate life, love, and Jenna’s unwanted pregnancy.

Nino was ecstatic to join the Waitress MNL cast as Ogie – the eccentric and kindhearted suitor of quirky Dawn. He was immediately drawn to Ogie’s fun and memorable musical numbers and dove head first into this scene-stealing hilarious character.

ONS 01

Last December, Nino was given the wonderful opportunity to join One Night Stand – the cabaret that features the brightest theatre artists both old and new and happens on the first Tuesday of every other month at 12 Monkeys Music Hall and Pub in Century City Mall.

The brainchild of theatre actors Joaquin Valdes, Chinie Concepcion, and Micaele Pineda, One Night Stand showcases some of the best musical talent in the country and gives them the chance to perform songs they love from different shows and genres as themselves and not as a role. And, the special allure of ONS night is that it is a “one night stand” by its very definition, no repeats, no reruns, just one night.

Past ONS themes included Spring Awakening, Confessions of a Diva: Carla Gueverra Laforteza, and the Rent Reunion. For this particular ONS, Nino was ecstatic to be given the chance to join as the theme was the music of Lin Manuel Miranda. A big Lin Manuel fan himself, Nino had just recently seen Hamilton in New York and was thrilled to be given the chance to sing some of the amazing songs from the show.
