don't miss MASTER CLASS!

please don't miss the amazing and immortal portrayal of Ms. Cherie Gil of Maria Callas! it will be staging for THIS LAST WEEKEND! you really will not get bored from the operatic singing and historical backgrounder of La Divina. discover how great artists hide from their despair and project themselves as people with power, with great talent and amazing personality.

the play really focused on the life of Maria Callas and how she appreciated the art. life lessons are integrated on how she taught her students which is very true in all of us. though it requires perfection, the essence of appreciating the art is feeling and listening to it. it is also one of my favorite stage plays to date! getting a renowned local actress as Cherie Gil to play as Maria Callas is already the total package.


MASTER CLASS is produced by the Philippine Opera Company and is directed by Michael Williams. Also featured are Juan Alberto Gaerlan as Anthony Candolino and Al Gatmaitan (alternate), Florence Aguilar as Sophie de Palma, Ana Feleo as Sharon Graham and Kay Balajadia-Liggayu (alternate), Chino Veguillas as stage hand and Francis Amora as the pianist Manny.

lessons in life from MASTER CLASS - review

it's just like being a student again. i remember the terror teachers that whom i am thankful for their existence. without them, i have not learned to what i am today. as MARIA CALLAS would say, one must possess MUT, COURAGIO. posture, breathe, relax and feel what you are doing.

though teachers may be strict. they also got humor to make an attachment with the students. they want you to feel the worth of what you are doing and don't have the attitude of letting it pass. it's good that they deliver humor at times. it's not just that they need it, they love it. and imparting their knowledge and experiences before they become what they are, is one of the great things that they can be proud of.

Philippine Opera Company has staged MASTER CLASS again. i am so happy that i was able to see it featuring Philippines' own La Divina, Cherie Gil as Maria Callas -- the famous soprano and opera star of her time.

Cherie Gil immortalized Maria Callas in our hearts. although contemporary music has overpowered classical and opera, anyone should see it. and i guarantee pure entertainment and lessons in life which you can actually feel Maria Callas talking to you. how she handled it, her despair, her strength, and ambitions. just like any other ordinary person.

i, myself thought that i won't enjoy but i loved it! i hope everybody catches it.
