Metamorphosis
Got home about 20 minutes ago. Went to CSB this evening to watch Benildanze's show, Metamorphosis, by Stephen the national artist, ahehehe. By the way, thanks for letting me in the guest list, Stephen.
I suddenly found myself face to face with Nicco when I had reached the top of the stairs in front of the LRC lobby. They actually had a ticket selling booth set up right there for Kopihaus, and found the rest of the people. There was Drei, Mervin, Alvin, even Arman, Russell, Mariko and Maje.
Dropped by Benildanze's home turf and found Miss Cindy and Sir Manolet, and couldn't help but laugh when they found that I was still where I am last year. Anyway, said hi, then found Mish and Dang by the back doors of the theater repainting some Monobloc chairs. Mish, I love your new hair, hehehe. After a little chat with Pam, I went around to the theater lobby.
Oooh, found food there, hahaha. Pizza and Mojo potatoes by Shakey's, yum. I was kinda hungry, but I didn't want to be the first to dig in, so I hung back for a while. When the people started approaching, I still hung back, even when Miss Cindy had gestured me to go attack the food. Lotsa familiar faces abound. I miss that, just hanging out in the theater lobby alone and finding a lot of people you can approach and talk to.
Ended up sitting between Mish and Eka in the 3rd row. Darn, I should've brought my camera.
Anyway, the show was a blast. I've only begun to appreciate shows such as these during the last year I was in CSB, but I started growing interest in it when I took Danform class once before (when we were still trying to learn the names of all those ballet terms).
Stephen, I salute you. Last year, I was already praising you because of a dance that had your name on it. Now you have an entire show that evolved from that excerpt that I saw then. Each message/story was clearly depicted in each dance, and I was in awe. What kept me from being totally in awe was the amusement of seeing familiar people onstage. Dancers I knew from Beauty and the Beast and Intersection were everywhere.
I was supposed to write a critique of the show, but now all my thoughts flew out the window. I guess I'll do it tomorrow.
Blahahahaha, when the show had ended, I actually found Sir Manolet dancing crazily. When I was near him at the lobby doors, I commented his dance and he did this weird and goofy Twist-like dance move, hahahahaha!
After the show, hung around for a while at Plaza V with Drei, Nicco, Pio and Maje. Just sat there, and for a while Drei took out his laptop and took a sneak peak at the first handful of scenes of Kopihaus for Maje. When the guard told us to leave because it was already late, we decided to go and eat. First went to Jollibee, but we couldn't find enough seats, so we settle for Tapa King instead. There was me, Nicco, Drei, Pio, Maje and Mariko, then Russell managed to catch up.
Weird, I didn't eat much before the show, and I realized I wasn't really hungry then, but managed to eat most of my food. Oh well.
After a while, when we all left Tapa King, I decided to leave them and go right on home. Someone was texting me, asking where I was, and I accidentally mentioned it aloud. Hahahaha, Nicco, I'll tell you everything on Saturday. Getting sleepy then, but by the time I reached my room earlier, I lost some of my sleepiness to blog, hahaha.
Now I'm getting sleepy again. And to think that Empire Records is playing again on Jack TV.
