International theater sensation and Grammy-nominated artist Christine Allado—best known for originating the roles of Peggy Schuyler and Maria Reynolds in Hamilton‘s West End production—returns to Manila to take on another iconic role: Rachel Marron in The Bodyguard The Musical. This marks the first-ever theatrical production at the Proscenium Theater in Rockwell, and a powerful homecoming for one of the Philippines’ brightest stars.
Allado’s stellar career has taken her from sold-out arenas alongside Andrea Bocelli across Europe and Asia, to major roles in The Prince of Egypt, In The Heights, and Carousel. She has graced the stages of the Royal Albert Hall, performed for Netflix and the BBC, and recently co-starred with Lea Salonga and Bernadette Peters in Stephen Sondheim’s Old Friends in London’s West End. This year, she is also set to lead the West End premiere of Jo: Little Women The Musical.
Now, she brings her crystalline vocals and magnetic presence to The Bodyguard The Musical, reimagining the role made famous by Whitney Houston with fresh emotional depth and intensity. Set to a legendary soundtrack—including “I Have Nothing,” “Run to You,” and “I Will Always Love You”—this electrifying adaptation explores the price of fame, the threat of danger, and the power of unexpected love.
Christine’s portrayal of Rachel Marron on home soil adds a deeply personal dimension to the production, making it not just a milestone for Rockwell, but a proud moment for Philippine theater. Her return signals a celebration of Filipino excellence on the world stage—now brought center stage in Manila.
