Sunday with Zaturnnah and Labfest

Ever since tickets to ZsaZsa Zaturnnah's 5th run went on sale, Tin kept bugging me as to which of Carlo's showdates we will be watching. I couldn't give a date because I was already thinking about the Virgin Labfest. Then she finally chose July 1st. And I didn't realize then that even if I didn't purchase a ticket, I'd still be frequenting the show. Oh well.

Carmel and Tin picked me up along Buendia this afternoon and we went to RCBC together for ZsaZsa. One funny thing that Tin and I had planned along with Carlo and Zee was to wear pink. So a huge bunch of us were clad in pink along with the front-of-house staff of TP, hahaha.

The lobby was chaotic. There were so many people, and they didn't even bother to come in when the house opened. Holy kamote. Anyway, we waited for the chimes before we went inside, and finally it was showtime. To be honest, I was kind of getting sick of watching the play, hahaha. I couldn't really complain earlier, because heck, I paid a ticket for this show, hahahaha! Sorry Carlo! Lagi kasi tayong pumupunta eh! And I've been sneaking peeks at rehearsal before. Anyway, there were still some adlibs here and there, and Lao even wore a wig in some of his scenes, and even we have to admit na gwapo nga siya, hahaha! Paging AJ! *grin* Aba, may cartwheel pa si Je in the opening of Act 2, hahaha. Reminds me of his first entrance in The Necklace, ahehehe.

The usual meet-and-greet after the show. Holy kamote, the lobby was even more chaotic than it was before the show started. Everyone wanted to have pictures taken with the cast. Hehehe, even though I'm not much of a camwhore, I joined in the bandwagon and managed to have a few with some I can bug without bothering to stand and wait for my turn. I guess that's one reason I hate having photos taken with actors after a show. Everyone wants to do it in any way possible. Anyway, here's a link to the photos.

When the crowd had thinned out, Carmel, Tin, Betsy, Edcel, Jeff and I crammed ourselves into Carmel's car. They were planning to have dinner at SM Mall of Asia, but Tin and I were dropped off along Buendia so we can go to CCP, where I had planned to meet Betty for Labfest. Tin just stayed for a while before the show started so she can say hi to Betty.

Three Unsent Letters was up first. Sir Roeder and Dandy in a bathtub together... Interesting. But I actually loved the dialogue as they delivered it. It really hits you right there. What was even more interesting was the play after that, Ellas Inosentes, directed by Tuxqs. What seemed to look like an innocent play about two young girls turned out to be something more than you would expect. Naglalaro lang sila, ahahaha. Chrome even quipped that Anna had enjoyed that particular play. *bonk* Kuyom with Russell was up next. Actually, at this time, I was already feeling pretty sleepy as I hadn't caught up with my sleep, having woken up early in the morning to hear mass and meet a relfexologist for my ankle (ahehehe). My apologies, Russ, for not paying attention to your play. Will do so in the weekend.

Time to sleep. Back to life tomorrow.
