The partnership of Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schönberg changed the course of musical theater when the songwriters created Les Misérables. Now, the best fruits of their musical collaboration are coming to the Philippines in Do You Hear the People Sing?, a concert like no other featuring music from their masterpieces: the unforgettable Les Misérables, Miss Saigon, Martin Guerre, The Pirate Queen and La Révolution Française.
In Asia, Shanghai Grand Theatre recently celebrated its 15th anniversary with a special production of this worldwide sensation. Fully supported by Boublil and Schonberg, Enda Markey and IMG Artists, the Philippine shows on January 29 and 30, 2013, 8PM at the Newport Performing Arts Theater will mark the first time that this show will be staged as a benefit concert. All the artists are performing pro bono to support a worthy cause: proceeds shall go to rebuilding programs for the survivors of Typhoon Yolanda. With your support, the event hopes to raise funds with the goal of building 200 homes in areas ravaged by the typhoon, through Habitat for Humanity Philippines.
Witness a stellar cast: Tony Award winner Lea Salonga, who has played Kim in Miss Saigon and both Eponine and Fantine in Les Misérables; David Harris, one of the most acclaimed leading men in Australia; and Marie Zamora, the acclaimed French soprano who was the original Cosette in the Paris production of Les Misérables.
David and Marie will be performing in the Philippines for the first time. Joining them are international artists who have performed in Miss Saigon shows across the globe, the ABS-CBN Philharmonic Orchestra and a 100-member choir, all under the musical direction of Gerard Salonga.
Do You Hear the People Sing? is a must-see for music lovers everywhere. Don’t miss it.
