  2. Nice. Thats where truly she belongs.. Not in the world of showbiz phil who is full of cruel people and bashers that judge people not by their talent but by their negative actions and tends to forget the possitive actions.

  3. It's a little-known play. When you Google the title, the TV series comes up. LOL

    1. In fairness, knows ko naman siya, but as George Takei's semi-autobiographical account of his family's struggles during WW2, not as a Lea vehicle.

    2. FYI, Looking forward po ang Broadway community sa pagbabalik ni Lea, although I don't expect you naman to be aware of such things since ang number 1 source of info mo naman pala ay ang sarili mong google search.

    4. Glinda if ipinagmamalaki mo yung Miss Saigon ni Rachelle Ann Go, napagdaan na yan ni Leah pati Les Misarables. At umabot ng 10 yrs ang Miss Saigon nya, yung kina Rachelle 1 year lang (pero napanuod ko ang Dec 24 show, mas maganda pa rin kina Lea though meron sila dinagdag na song) at umabot si Leah sa 25th Anniversary sa O2 Arena sa London at 2 ang role na nagawa nya dun, remarkable yun! Kaya wag ka masyadong magmaasim at kapiranggot lng ang achievement ng mga taga Kamuning ke Lea!

  6. Nganga ang iba dyan. Unfamiliar with her true caliber tapos malakas ang instant hate. Sometimes people need to step back and probably google before throwing some hate to focus on appreciation.

    1. Some people need to get off their high horses and eat some humble pie, lest said pie gets thrown at their faces. Violently.

    1. E di ngumanga ka. This is not a big deal. At all. Nakailang balik na sa Bway yung mga kasabayan ni Lea, samantalang siya e ngaun lang uli.

      Delete
    2. 1:16 am: at least nakabalik, kesa never nakabalik. E ikaw, at ang mga pinaglalaban mo? Never na-experience yang nagawa lea

      Delete
    3. Wala akong pinaglalaban. I'm just pointing out how you are all hyped over something that's not really a big deal. It's not the Second Coming you know.

  10. Excited for this! Most anticipated upcoming musical. Hope Lea gets nominated for a Tony, or at least perform in the awards show. Broadway deserves to have its queen back.

    1. She's not the Queen of Broadway. Pwede ba?! Fantard.

    2. Huh? When was she a queen of Broadway?

  11. Ain't it nice for an actress/singer that she gets to work different projects till now. Let's face it, very few who started their career very young are continuously still appearing in shows or plays here and abroad in their 40s. It may be luck, real talent, genuine passion to work, or good management all contributing for career longevity.

    1. Just luck. She was at the right place at the right time for Miss Saigon, which paved the way for Les Miz. At hindi na niya nasustain after that dahil hindi siya makapasa sa mga auditions for plays na hindi produced by Cameron Mackintosh.

  12. baka hindi pa ito abutin ng isang taon. hindi na malakas ang hatak ni tiyang.

    2. Sa mga pinoy siguro OO pero iba ang respeto ng mga dayuhan kay The Lea Salonga

    3. Lol, 1102. Pag guest nga yan sa mga foreign talk shows to promote something kailangan niya ng nametag.

      Delete
    4. FYI, 1101, first time on broadway ito. Maka FYI ka dyan.

      Delete
    5. Iba ang respeto ng mga banyaga sa theater. Mas naappreciate nila ito kesa TV.

      Delete
    6. Talaga 3:37? So mas popular ang theater kaysa tv sa ibang bansa? Aba'y akalain mo nga naman. E di dapat mas sikat pa si Lea kaysa mga artista sa tv?

      Delete
    7. Anon 3:37, we foreigners loves the play and loves to play, hahahaha tsaka!

  14. Flower Drum Song was a flop because it opened a year after the 9/11. But it was big hit in CA before it went to Broadway. Haters gonna hate. Just be happy and proud for Lea S.

    1. So yung mga kasabayan ba ng Flower Drum Song nag-flop din? Just asking...

    1. Ateng, I'll choose Broadway any day over the cheap showbiz world here in the Philippines. I suggest you research about how actors/actresses get to be on Broadway.

    2. 11:03 AM I think 1:34 is being sarcastic lang naman.

    3. mahina pick up ni 11:03..hehehe

    4. 1:34 Not a big deal. There are plenty of Asians and Filipinos on Bway. Hindi lang hinahype na katulad ng ginagawa niyo.

  16. The problem with most is their insecurities had built to hate.

    1. Ano'ng konek? Yan ang explanation lagi ng mga fantards regarding bashers/haters/nonfans. Hindi nila macomprehend na may mali sa mga idolo nila kaya may dissenters.

  18. Hataw c tita Lea daming raket! The voice PH plus my Broadway show pa! E di wow!!!!!

  19. Tita Lea adamantly supports the LGBT community because the show "Allegiance" is about the LGBT community. Isn't it ironic? Don't you think?

    ReplyDelete

    1. I think also because she works with lots of gays in the theater world.

      Delete
  20. 12.28pm teh alam ba ang ibig sabihin ng IRONY? and Allegiance is not about LGBT...Takei is gay as a lark but the musical is mainly about Japanese-Americans during WW2 which was based on Takei's family experiences
