Wow! I have great memories of this play.

I can't get over the song "Minsan ang minahal ay ako" which eventually became some sort of stage anthem of stage performers. Celeste's version is great, but, for some reason, I love Mitch's version better. But when they sing it together in a duet, that is the best. A myriad of colors full of love, longing anguish and hope.

I remember watching this musical 20 years ago at the ccp. my fave tune was the tango "Laruan kong Langit" by celeste. Where are these original pilipino musicals? i'm glad MAGSIMULA KA will be restaged this nov.

KC Concepcion has been one of the mainstays of Little Mermaids for quite a long time. She is used to doing musical shows as it was proven true by her role as Princess Sapphire in the Little Mermaids. Never underestimate nor prejudge anyone elses' capacity.
