NEWCOMER WILL POULTER IN “CHRONICLES OF NARNIA: VOYAGE OF THE DAWN TREADER”

“Chronicles of Narnia: Voyage of the Dawn Treader” finds its latest treasure of an actor in newcomer Will Poulter who plays Eustace Scrubb, the bratty cousin of the Pevensies. Returning in their biggest 3D adventure are Georgie Henley and Skandar Keynes who play Lucy and Edmund Pevensie respectively. In the film, the Pevensie children are staying at Eustace’s home when all three are dragged into Narnia via a painting on the wall depicting the ocean, which suddenly becomes terrifyingly real as gallons of water flood into the room. They surface in the ocean in Narnia, near Caspian’s ship, The Dawn Treader, and embark on an epic quest to find the seven Lost Lords.

Bright, articulate, enthusiastic, utterly charming and delightfully modest teenager, Will clearly relishes the big opportunity that working with director Michael Apted and co-stars Ben Barnes, Georgie Henley and Skandar Keynes (who have all appeared in the Narnia films before), represents. For him, this particular adventure was a dream come true especially on the shores of Australia where the film was also shot. “I loved being in Australia,” he says. “I loved the people I worked with and we got to work in a giant water tank – that was so cool. We also learned to scuba dive and I learned sword fighting too, which was fantastic. Finally, I had to work with a blue screen, which was weird but fun. After work I would go surfing and I loved doing that. Actually, I can’t begin to describe how much fun it was. I had the best time.”

Born and raised in London and in many ways, is like any other English boy of the same age. He also loves to act and made a very promising start in the professional world of filmmaking at just 14 years old when he starred in the charming British comedy Son Of Rambow. He credits his drama teacher at school, The Harrodian, for inspiring him to take the plunge and go for the role of Lee Carter. “My teacher, Laura Lawson, put me up for my first audition for Son of Rambow,” he says. “I kind of owe everything to her. She’s been amazing to me.”

When Michael Apted (“Amazing Grace,” “The World Is Not Enough,” “Nell”) first auditioned young Will for the part of Eustace Scrubb, the vastly experienced director was obviously impressed. Typically, though, Will himself was convinced that he didn’t stand a chance. “I was absolutely terrified.”

“Eustace is really a horrible, horrible guy,” Will explains of his role. “He’s obnoxious, at times arrogant, and quite defensive of himself, and he’s very much against the whole idea of Narnia and talking creatures,” he says.

“I felt really guilty that I had to subject that many people to a brat like that for six months,” he laughs. “But it was also really good fun and I absolutely loved playing the part—it was tough but I absolutely loved it.”

“Chronicles of Narnia: Voyage of the Dawn Treader” opens December 9 in theatres nationwide from 20th Century Fox to be distributed by Warner Bros.

Is your green tea made of real tea and real honey?

This was the challenge Real Leaf Green Tea posed before everyone when it held The Perfect Pair, a one-of-a-kind “green carpet screening” held last September 25, 2010 at Greenbelt 3 Cinema Lobby in Makati City. As the curtains rolled up, the mini-movie goers witnessed and tasted for themselves how Real Leaf puts a refreshing spin to our typical green tea!

“It’s been our pride to innovate and surpass the expectations of our discerning consumers. We know that their needs are continually evolving that’s why we keep things fresh and exciting. Real Leaf is a product of this constant effort to elevate standards and give them what they deserve. And now, its deliciously reviving* formula is out there! Real Leaf is made with Real Tea and Real Honey. It’s a combination unlike any other and this is What Green Tea Could Be,” said Sharon Tanganco, Hydration and Tea Category Director of Coca-Cola Philippines.

Yes, Real Leaf is not the average green tea drink! It deliciously blends all the refreshing benefits of green tea with the natural goodness honey in one great-tasting beverage made even more luscious by infusing fruit flavors. All these make up for the unique fusion that helps revive both mind and body. Not to mention that its brewing process follows only world-class standards based on years of experience and expertise of The Coca-Cola System, meaning optimum freshness, quality and aroma of green tea leaves are retained.

Yet, this grand revelation was not the only surprise the special day had in store. Soon as guests packed the venue, host Andrei Felix opened up the high-spirited day with a few teasers about the “perfect pair” they will be discovering that day. The moment the lights went off, viewers get a hold of today’s “it” love team and now Real Leaf ambassadors Enchong Dee and Erich Gonzales.

Two of the today’s most talented young stars, Enchong and Erich are known individually as powerful actors and well-admired endorsers. Together, they captivate countless fans with their vibrant spirits, dynamic characters and refreshing chemistry. All these and their no-compromise attitude when it comes to life choices make them the perfect pair to represent Real Leaf Green Tea.

“I’m so thrilled that Erich and I are joining forces to let everyone experience the kind of refreshment only Real Leaf gives. It’s packed with theanine, an amino acid that is naturally found in tea plants which can help boost focus and alertness. For me, that makes it the perfect pick-me-up drink; the one I choose to keep me right on track every time,” says Enchong.

Erich couldn’t agree more. “I’ve always loved drinking tea and I was actually surprised to know that Real Leaf has honey. I never thought it could be that unique ingredient that can add that hint of gentle sweetness and make it even more delicious. Of all three flavors, Honey Apple, Honey Lemon and Honey Lychee, I find Real Leaf Honey Lychee the yummiest. And that’s the best part about drinking this product- you know it’s not only tasty, healthy too. It’s my gold standard for green tea!” Erich adds. Naturally, honey is a good source of antioxidants and even contains vitamins, minerals and amino acids and can even help prevent seasonal allergies.

Right after the film showing, Enchong and Erich, along with renowned personalities, also tea and honey lovers gave their seal of approval to Real Leaf for elevating the way green tea could be enjoyed in the country by infusing real tea with real honey. No doubt, these individuals who uphold the highest standards in their respective fields choose nothing less than products of superior quality and value like Real Leaf. Guests were then handed ice-cold bottles of Real Leaf for them to taste the delicious difference.

At the end of the fun-filled affair, guests and tea lovers all around were left with one last thing to answer- would you settle for your usual green tea or choose deliciously reviving Real Leaf Green Tea?

Deliciously Reviving Real Leaf Green Tea. Real Tea. Real Honey. What Your Green Tea Could Be. Also available in 8 oz. bottle in honey apple flavor for only Php10 in your favorite sari-sari stores! Real Leaf is on Facebook! Go to www.facebook.com/realleaf to know about its latest promos and other exciting treats.

YOUNG TALENTS FEATURED IN THEATER DOWN SOUTH’S FIRST SONDHEIM SHOW

This October, Theater Down South presents Stephen Sondheims “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum.” This hilarious musical farce first appeared in Broadway in the late 1960s and has since been realized on film and in a highly successful Broadway revival in the 1990s. This production of “Forum” also coincides with composer Sondheim’s 80th birthday, which is being celebrated worldwide with various productions of his works going onstage throughout the year

Two young actors make their Theater Down South debut in this show. DLSU-Taft Freshman Jacob Kliatchko Gayanelo and U.P. Sophomore Carla Gonzalez will be featured in the roles of the lovers Hero and Philia in this hilarious musical farce.

Both Carla and Jacob are residents of the South Metro area, as are most of the company’s other members. “It’s part of our company’s mandate to provide opportunities for actors in the South and to promote the growth of theater in this area,” says director Michael Williams. “We hope of developing a theater tradition here for practitioners and audiences alike.”

“A Funny thing Happened on the Way to the Forum” will be showing at the Insular Life Theater on October 2, 3, 8, 9, 24, 30. All shows are at 8:00 PM, except for Sunday shows, which will be at 3:00 PM.

MEET THE CAST OF THE WEDDING SINGER SET TO OPEN ON OCTOBER 23

Are you ready to dance the night away and relive the era of the 80’s?

9 Works Theatrical, one of the Philippines’ leading theater companies is hot on the heels as it proudly presents “THE WEDDING SINGER”, a riotous yet heartwarming musical based on the 1998 New Line Cinema film starring Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore.
“The Wedding Singer” is set to open on October 23, 2010 – 8 p.m. at the Meralco Theater, Ortigas Avenue, Pasig City.
The Wedding Singer takes us back to a time when hair was high and big, permed and curled; neon was in, greed was good, collars were up, and a wedding singer sporting a mullet just might be the coolest guy in the room. The place is New Jersey. The time is 1985.
When Robbie, a charismatic wedding singer, is dumped in the altar by his longtime girlfriend Linda, the protagonist becomes a casualty of love and plunges into the depths of dumpster-level despair. But with the help of his friend Julia, a sweet and caring waitress who is oddly engaged to a smug of a guy and Wall Street type named Glen, Robbie rediscovers why he was all about the “love” in the first place.
“THE WEDDING SINGER”, a Tony Award-nominated musical captured the hearts of audiences all over America with its mind-blowing tribute to the pop songs of the 80’s. Its hilariously written script, and songs like “Someday,” “If I Told You,” and the phenomenal hit, “Grow Old With You” with music by Matthew Sklar, lyrics by Chad Beguelin, and a book by Chad Beguelin and Tim Herlihy, will surely be a hit among local musical theater fans.
“THE WEDDING SINGER” features Party Pilipinas’ Gian Magdangal as Robbie Hart. Robbie is New Jersey’s favorite wedding singer, rocking reception halls with his signature tune, “IT’S YOUR WEDDING DAY”. A hopeless romantic who could say all the right things to salvage any situation, Robbie’s own Wedding Day is just around the corner. Gian recently appeared onstage as Roger in 9 Works Theatrical’s RENT THE MUSICAL.

TV personality and MYX VJ Iya Villania who once shared the stage with Gian Magdangal in a local production of “Footloose the Musical” will play the role of waitress Julia Sullivan, who has been dating Glen, a fabulously wealthy junk bond dealer with a penchant for dressing like Don Johnson. Though it’s been four years and Glen hasn’t proposed, she’s positive it’s bound to happen someday.

Theater veteran Shiela Valderrama-Martinez alternates the role of Julia. Sheila was part of the opening team of Hong Kong Disneyland as the first Asian to play Nala in the Festival of the Lion King and Bebe in the Golden Mickeys.

Singer-actress and TV personality Nikki Valdez, who also shared the stage with Magdangal and Villania in Footloose, returns to the stage as Holly, Julia’s bubbly, uninhibited and lovable cousin.

Analin Bantug, who has played a bevy of roles, including Kim in her five-year stint with Miss Saigon UK Tour, alternates with Valdez for the said role.

Jeremy Aguado as Julia’s fiance Glen Guglia, a calculating, money-loving Wall Street type; Lorenz Martinez as Sammy, Robbie’s right hand man who does Van Halen licks while urging the guys to make the leap to legitimate rock stardom. He still pines for his ex-girlfriend, Holly; Johann dela Fuente as Robbie’s flamboyantly eccentric friend George, the band’s keyboard player who wrote a special song, “George’s Prayer” for the band’s upcoming Bar Mitzvah gig and looks out for Robbie and Robbie’s grandmother, with whom he connects on a deeply emotional level; Myrene Santos as Linda, Robbie’s trashy, oversexed girlfriend and Enchang Kaimo as Rosie, Robbie’s feisty grandmother.

Other members of the cast who will showcase their mettle in acting, singing and dancing prowess include: Arnold Trinidad, Bym Buhain, Chinie Nepomuceno, Francis Matheu, Harold Cruz, Ikey Canoy, James Stacey, Jenny Villegas, Jonjon Martin, Luau Sablan, Mark Tayag, Mian Dimacali, Miguel Vasquez, Nikki Guevara, Peachy Atilano, Sab Jose, Shelyn Tayanes, and Sylveth Ong-iko.

Robbie Guevara, one of 9 Works Theatrical’s founders, will be directing THE WEDDING SINGER. He has performed in numerous productions both here and abroad, and was the director of Songs for a New World and RENT THE MUSICAL (9 Works Theatrical’s first two productions) I Love You Because, A Christmas Carol, Fiddler on the Roof, Gay Birds and Romance, Romance for Repertory Philippines; Bat Boy for Blue Repertory; Heart & Music and the Rhythm of Life for the Philippine Opera Company.
Incidentally, “THE WEDDING SINGER” is also the reason that propelled Executive Producer Santi Santamaria and Artistic Director Robbie Guevara to establish their theater company, 9 Works Theatrical. “When we first encountered the material, we knew that we had to do it,” relates Guevara. Santamaria adds, “Wedding Singer is a crazy and energetic musical, and audiences will surely enjoy,” to which Guevara interjects, “One word to describe Wedding Singer ? Fun! ”

The artistic production team includes Musical Director Rodel Colmenar conducting the Manila Philharmonic Orchestra, Choreographer Francis Matheu, Musical Director for Vocals Onyl Torres, Scenographer Mio Infante, Lighting Designer Martin Esteva, Sound Designer Chuck Ledesma, and Costume Stylist Rosanna Aranaz.
The production team is composed of Executive Producer Santi Santamaria, Production Manager Sunshine Domine, Technical Director Paul Domine, PR and Publicity Consultant Toots Tolentino. PR Director Christopher de Venecia, PR Manager Jonjon Martin, Marketing Manager Shelyn Tayanes, Stage Manager Lambert de Jesus, Company Manager Anna Santamaria and Photography by Revolution.

“THE WEDDING SINGER” is brought to you by the following sponsors: Rockwell Club, ABS-CBN Foundation, MAC Cosmetics, and The Philippine Star.

The show is presented through a special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI), 421 West 54th Street, New York, New York 10019 – tel.: (212) 541-4684
