SWEET CHARITY review

9 Works Theatrical stages the hit Sweet Charity in tribute to jazz dance legend, Bob Fosse. the play will run from August 5 2011 at the Carlos P. Romulo Auditorium in RCBC Plaza, Ayala Avenue, Makati City.

this comedy-musical starred by Nikki Gil as Charity Hope Valentine, a taxi dancer looking for true love. a strong-willed woman, filled with hope and cheerful indeed; she speaks glowing words that can encourage you, compliment you and change your outlook in life to a positive one.Kris Lawrence, plays Oscar Linguist, an accountant that falls for Charity. the main cast includes Shiela Martinez, Sheree Bautista, OJ Mariano, and Miguel Faustman who equally played very good roles and with outstanding acting. the revelation is Kris Lawrence, the R&B singer from TV whom i had doubted the acting skills. for a first timer in theater, he really did good or maybe went to the level of the veteran actors that he is with. kudos Kris! and since i saw Nikki Gil from Legally Blonde, i really liked her in this. she had it as her own. Ciara and Sheree's research on their characters have really paid off. you will laugh as hard as you laugh with Charity and Oscar.

in the films with truly Bob Fosse craft like Chicago and the like, the choreography and set is overwhelming. the whole production of music and choreography will introduce you to Bob Fosse. and the stage is really amazing! watch it like it was a real movie in the silver screen. you will get transported to 1960s era with the dance and costumes beautifully made. i also remembered Austin Powers in one segment. LOL

congratulations to director Robbie Guevarra and the whole production team for giving us another wonderful show. please keep doing fun musicals. :D
