(Viva), inked a landmark partnership agreement to produce a first of its kind musical production “Bituing Walang Ningning: The Musical“ scheduled to be staged in the second quarter of 2015 at RWM’s world-class Newport Performing Arts Theater (NPAT).
During the Imperial Festival: A World of Luck launch last January 29, 2015, Resorts World Manila also announced actor-singer Mark Bautista to play the role of Nico Escobar and theater actress-singer Cris Villonco as the iconic character of Lavinia Arguelles.
