From opera to film classics, renowned Filipino artists took us on a journey as they told stories through dance and music. It was even more magical with the accompanying lights and effects on-stage. Truly a feast of Filipino creativity!

I was with some good friends and we raved about it all night — along with a lot of other topics at our post-show dinner! Bravo to everyone behind the show, and of course the overflowing talent. The funds raised at this event will go to several efforts supporting our local creatives, making sure Filipino talent continues to thrive! Cheers!
