Jack and the Beanstalk Repertoire....

Repertory of the Philippines presents...Jack and the Beanstalk...

I still remember my childhood days wherein I would love to read fairytale stories. Those of Cinderella, Snow white and the seven dwarfs, Beauty and the Beast, The Ugly Duckling, Emperor's New Clothes, The Princess and the Pea and so on and so forth. I even have mini books of those celebrated fairytales with colorful illustrations and pictures. I just missed those days wherein my playmates and I would read those books and even dreamed of becoming a princess or be part of the royal court. Those were the days....

Back to the present, I attended The Feast at Villa Verde Country Club last Sunday which was facilitated by Bo Sanchez. And the highlight of that talk is about "Where are you in the Journey of Generosity"... They have shown a video footage of those charities being supported by BO Sanchez. Oh boy! I was touched. I realized that they have bigger problems compared to me. It dawned on me that these people really need help and realized that giving some help is really important.

So if you wanna help these people, you could give your donations directly to Anawim or you could also enjoy this repertoire "Jack and the Beanstalk" while helping others because a portion of the income will be given to different charities..

For those who wants to have the synopsis you may read it below. I got it from one of the flyers that was being distributed last Sunday.

“Fee, fie, fo, fum – I smell the blood of an Englishman, Be he alive, or be he dead, I’ll grind his bones to make my bread!”This rhyme gets stuck in the brain from early childhood, with visions of a big, bad giant out to get Jack – and you. You can see him again, but this time in an entirely new light. Thanks to Repertory, you can probably even fall in love with him in this beloved fairytale with a new twist. The characters you remember will all be there – the Golden Goose, the Singing Harp, Jack’s mother.

But the biggest, most delightful surprise will be unwrapped when you actually watch the show. This version is sure to bring the oldies and the kiddies together in one big celebration of fun and laughter.Rep’s well-known players – Juno Henares, Liesl Batucan, Rem Zamora, Joel Trinidad, are part of this huge, able cast that one can look forward to with great anticipation. Terri Aldeguer choreographs. And with directors Joy Virata and Baby Barredo, you have the perfect recipe for a great time at the theatre.

Jack and the Beanstalk comes to Makati at Onstage Theatre, 2nd level, Greenbelt 1, Paseo de Roxas. It runs from August 8th to December 10th. You can call 8870710 for ticket inquiries or log onto www.repertory.ph. What makes this production not one to miss, is that it crosses generation gaps effortlessly and makes for wonderful bonding time. So bring the kiddies and Lola and Lolo, too!

Caring for your Shitzhu puppies...

-

I used to have these puppies (half shitzhu and half maltese). But they are actually living their separate lives now and maybe they are happy with their new found home. Here are some tips on how to handle newborn puppies... 1. Love and affection. Puppies need love and affection when they are growing up. Just like babies, you need to be there with them. Shitzhu become depressed when they are being left for long periods of time. So if you are in work or school be sure that someone would take care of them or better yet leave them with large stuff toys (without of course the plastic eyes and buttons because they might choke on it.) 2. Give them something to chew . If they are on the teething stage, give them something to chew. A lot of petshop and supermarket are now offering these. Shitzhu loves to chew specially those wooden furnitures, rubber slippers, shoes or anything that they can hold on. Puppies do start to get their teeth at 4 weeks of age. Canned puppy food or softened dry puppy

It's my first time to be in Coron, Palawan and I can say that it was a very rewarding experience. The place is very relaxing and it's like you are in a paradise. The planning, research, discussion and all the drama that comes with the planning really paid off. It took us more or less than four (4) months before we embark on this journey (hmmm..a lot of time spent on planning..). Some backed out, some just came with us as a surprise (1 day before our scheduled trip). But no matter who we're with we just enjoyed the moment that we are in Coron, Palawan..So if you are planning your trip to Coron Palawan, read on and the details here may help you plan ahead of time..
