A spectrum of emotions and values in Rainbow's Sunset

Watch a different family movie this Christmas as acclaimed director Joel Lamangan and Heaven's Best Entertainment Productions bring an extraordinary journey and love in Rainbow's Sunset.

In the tradition of reunions and get togethers, a family becomes dysfunctional as the father Ramon Estrella (Eddie Garcia) comes out to an affair with his long time lover, Fredo (Tony Mabesa). Ramon decided to leave his long home and wife (Gloria Romero) to take care of Fredo who is dying of cancer. Disorder and confusion has struck the family whether they would accept and appreciate their father's decision.

In a blog conference with the cast of Rainbow's Sunset, the cast appreciated the values that they have learned filming. For young actors Noel Comia, Zeke Sarmenta, and Adrian Cabido, they have learned and want to impart acceptance, love and the importance of family as the essential things that we could absorb throughout the movie.

Kapuso Star Sunshine Dizon agrees and would like to reiterate that the family is the only group of people most important to us. They are the first line of defense against anything that would get us in trouble and they will love and accept us no matter what we may go through in life.

For director Joel Lamangan, he thinks that the LGBT-themed movies are getting more acceptance but the core of the story is love and acceptance. For a couple of years now, the theme has not left the MMFF and he hopes for good acceptance and understanding from the people who will see Rainbow's Sunset.

Rainbow's Sunset also casts Tirso Cruz III, Aiko Melendez, Max Collins as young Gloria Romero, Jim Pebanco, Tanya Gomez, Sue Prado, Marcus Madrigal, Ross Pesigan, Adrian Cabido, Hero Bautista, Vince Dillon, Nella Marie Dizon, Ace Merfel, Benz Sangalang and Celine Juan. With special participation of Albie Casino.

looking back in THE LAST 5 YEARS

what do you see in the last 5 years? i have so many things to look back around that time. i am thappy to say that i had so much fun. i earned friends, solved problems, changed careers and now i am looking forward to a new chapter in the next five years.

one special thing about the last five years is there's a new theater company in town. i am also very glad to say that i've been a part of their 5 years. 9 Works Theatrical has given the Philippine audience with quality musicals that i loved and kept in my heart. these are Songs For A New World, three runs of RENT, You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown, They're Playing Our Song, The Wedding Singer, Gawad-Buhay award-winner Grease and more.

as their newest offering, they bring another Jason Robert Brown hit, The Last 5 Years which tells the story of two lovers, Jamie Wellerstein and Cathy Hyatt. their story of falling in love, getting married and the sad divorce in a tear-jerking musical.

played by artists Joaquin Valdes as Jamie and Nikki Gil as Cathy, they will deliver a story that many people would relate to. the musical also gave Jason Robert Brown nominations and awards and also dubbed as Time Magazine's "one of the best musicals of 2001." it was funny that director Robbie Guevarra was just joking to do this musical in celebration of 9WT's 5-year existence but Santi Santamaria and company took it seriously and it was made possible. something fresh for the company and for us all.

on August 9-31, i am coming back to Carlos P. Romulo auditorium to witness their incredible love journey. but for now, i have to listen and sob at the music on my Spotify playlist. directed by 9WT artistic director, Robbie Guevarra.
