I cried my heart out and was affected for days as I read
about the death of Professor Albus Dumbledore in Harry Potter Book 6.
Being a Harry Potter fan, I'm happy I am finally going to be able to
watch this. I missed the previous sell out runs in Manila last 2012 and
2013. I'm glad they decided to come back...

About the Show:
Cirque Du Soleil to Perform the Signature Production Saltimbanco in Manila
Saltimbanco is Cirque du Soleil’s longest-running touring show and has performed since 1992 to wide-spread acclaim to sell-out audiences in Europe, North and South America, Australia, Japan, and New Zealand for more than 11.5 million enthusiastic fans.
Classic Cirque du Soleil at its best, Saltimbanco is a thrilling and kaleidoscopic celebration of awe-inspiring artistry and agility. With a cast of 50 high-caliber artists hailing from 20 different countries, Saltimbanco features breathtaking acrobatics and unbelievable athleticism during solo spotlights and epic ensembles. From the seemingly impossible balancing, jumping, and spinning during the Chinese Poles or the Russian Swing to the gravity-defying Bungees and Trapeze, the crowd pleasing Juggling and Acrobatic Bicycle, to the celebrated and very unique Clowns. Technical expertise and extravagant design are woven together by uplifting spectacular costumes, amazing lighting, humor and enchanting music and magic. Full of colour, amusement and amazement, Saltimbanco is a fun show for the whole family.
Saltimbanco - from the Italian “saltare in banco,” which literally means “to jump on a bench”- explores the urban experience in all its myriad forms: the people who live there, their idiosyncrasies and likeness, families and groups, the hustle and bustle of the street and the towering heights of skyscrapers. A signature show, it is inspired by the urban fabric of the metropolis and its colorful inhabitants. Decidedly baroque in its visual, the show’s eclectic cast of characters draws spectators into a fanciful, dreamlike world, an imaginary city where diversity is a cause for hope.
From a group of 20 street performers at its beginnings in 1984, Cirque du Soleil is a major Quebec-based organization providing high-quality artistic entertainment. The company has 5,000 employees, including more than 1,300 artists from more than 50 different countries. Cirque du Soleil has brought wonder and delight to more than 300 cities on six continents. In 2011, Cirque du Soleil will present 22 shows simultaneously around the world. For more information, visit www.cirquedusoleil.com.

About the Show:
"Kina Grannis, most recently known for her “In Your Arms” video, stop-motion clip features 288,000 Jelly Belly jellybeans – and 1 Kina Grannis – captured with 1 still camera over 2,460 frames and accruing more than 3.5 million YouTube views in just over 3 weeks, is starting her “In Your Arms” world tour in Dublin, Ireland on February 1, 2012. Making her way to Asia for the first time, be sure to be captivated by Kina’s intimate performance, just 1 Kina Grannis and her guitar, serenading audiences with her sweet, melancholy, hope-filled songs like Valentine, In Your Arms and many others. Come on down for a wonderful evening of sweet serenades!
About Kina Grannis:
Born and raised in Mission Viejo, CA, Kina Grannis started playing shows at the age of four in front of stuffed animals. Now she plays in front of people. For those who knew Kina as the shy and self-proclaimed-awkward songstress who escaped into the collegiate stairwells to practice and play in privacy, the idea of playing in front in inanimate objects might actually seem fitting. But between those who travel across state and country lines to her sold out live shows and those navigating through her extensive library of YouTube videos, it’s quite clear that Kina is hardly playing for no one.
Since the original release of Stairwells, Kina continued to super-serve her ever-loyal following. She spent much of 2010 on the road, headlining venues across North America, performing sold out shows at Los Angeles’ Troubadour and El Rey Theater and New York City’s Highline Ballroom, spending hours after each and every show signing autographs for, taking pictures with and talking to anyone in attendance. On April 5th, 2011 Kina released a remixed and remastered version of Stairwells, this time in stores and internationally. This new version of Stairwells includes fan-favorites “Valentine” and “Message From Your Heart”. The following week Stairwells once again debuted on Billboard’s Top 200 and #2 on its New Artist/Heatseekers chart and follow-up single “the One You Say Goodnight To” premiered and debuted #2 at MTV.com (behind only Beyonce).
On November 3, Kina released her video for “In Your Arms,” a song from her album Stairwells. A whopping 22 months in the making, the video is a staggering product of creativity, patience and execution. The Greg Jardin-directed stop-motion clip features 288,000 Jelly Belly jellybeans – and 1 Kina Grannis – captured with 1 still camera over 2,460 frames. To call the video a success would be an understatement, as “In Your Arms” has arguably become the artist’s most polarizing achievement, a lofty claim for someone whose first music video found airtime during Super Bowl XLII. Accruing more than 3.5 million YouTube views in just over 3 weeks, “In Your Arms” earned Kina and interview and performance on the aforementioned Ellen Degeneres show, an iTunes Music Video of The Week and features on The Today Show, Good Morning America, Billboard, Mashable, Entertainment Weekly, E! News, CNN’s Showbiz Insider, Inside Edition, The Huffington Post, Yahoo!, and MTV, among dozens of other television, internet and video outlets. Consequently, the track rocketed to #1 on iTunes Singer Songwriter Chart, while Stairwells reached #2 on the same chart and reappeared on Billboard’s New Artist/Heatseekers Chart, ascending as high as #4 overall." - TicketWorld

International dance artists perform in Agnes Locsin's 'Puno' at PETA
Puno will focus on the hard and red wood trees found mostly in the vanishing forests of the Philippines. In a collection of solo and duo dances, Puno will expound on the parallelisms in a fight from extinction and the fight for survival of men, women, and trees.
