I saw a couple Canadian news articles on this show MA BUHAY that stars the original Anne Boleyn from Broadway.

Other news releases seemed to suggest that it’s moving to Theatre Calgary and eventually to Broadway.   It sounds like it’s an American Idol from the Philippines(?).  I was curious if anyone has heard anything about it? Thoughts on it? Opinions?  I do wonder how it would fair considering Here Lies Loves short stay on Broadway.  I don’t know if this is the next Come From Away. But I am curious on some more information.

Maybe Off-Broadway.

This’ll last a week on Broadway after producer’s and cast member’s families make their visit.

Someone just sent me this link to a song from the musical. They are saying it’s looking to have an original cast recording.  I’m curious what everyone else thinks of the song:

Word is that not only Theatre Calgary will be taking on the musical in their future season, but they will also be having a “Toronto premiere “ of the show as well.

Off-Broadway, to be exact. I'm learning more
