Running in all Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from January 31 to March 9, the Philippine Educational Theater Association (PETA) brings the great songs of the iconic OPM band Aegis on stage with the rock comedy-musical Rak of Aegis. With the lead stars Isay Alvarez-Seña, Robert Seña, Aicelle Santos, and Joan Bugcat, they will be giving a new taste and approach to the all-time favorites Aegis songs including Luha, Halik, Sundot, Christmas Bonus, and Basang-basa sa Ulan with a story that everyone can surely relate with.
Rak of Aegis is PETA’s closing act for the 46th Theater Season and they surely did the right choice in giving a perfect mix of story with social relevance and interest and not to mention the song that everyone can really relate with. It was the tandem of Aicelle and Kalila Aguilos as Aileen and Mary Jane was presented when I saw the musical. As always Kalila showcased her vocal flexibility at the same time Aicelle did a good job in expressing herself and good banter with the rest of the cast including her two leading men. Meanwhile check out the photos from the musical below and more of it were posted in the gallery of www.Facebook.com/ASKbyFlowGalindez.
Rak of Aegis was spearheaded by PETA Artistic Director Maribel Legarda and Palanca Award-winning writer Liza Magtoto, with musical arrangement and musical direction by actor-musician Myke Salomon. Rak of Aegis also consists of a talented artistic team which includes Gio Gahol (choreography), Jonjon Villareal (lighting design), Mio Infante (production design), Carlo Pagunaling (costume design), Maco Custodio (shoe design), and Joan Pamintuan (accessory design).
