The award-winning Newport Performing Arts Theater recently became the epicenter of Parokyaverse as Buruguduystunstugudunstuy: Ang Parokya ni Edgar Musical made its highly-anticipated stage debut. Throughout April, the musical lived up to its hype with sold-out shows, including a gala night performance on Thursday, May 2, which drew in a full house of theater fans and OPM enthusiasts, all eager for a live theater journey that promised to be truly out of this world.
Buruguduystunstugudunstuy: Ang Parokya ni Edgar Musical marks the tenth major theatrical offering from Newport World Resorts, and it stands as their most expensive Filipino production to date. Newport World Resorts President and CEO, Kingson Sian, emphasized their commitment to delivering top-notch entertainment for the Filipino audience. “We spared no expense because the Filipino audience deserves the best. We want to show that if others can do it on Broadway, we can do it here in Newport,” Sian stated during the gala night.
Among the privileged few who witnessed the magic of the musical were all six band members of Parokya ni Edgar. Frontman Chito Miranda expressed his overwhelming excitement after seeing their songs come to life on stage. “The experience was incredibly overwhelming because we became the audience in a show that was truly out of this world. They were using our songs, and they added new life and new meaning to them,” Miranda shared.
