A Bit of KAOS In Our Lives


A press presentation was held last November 15, 2010 for the upcoming show, KAOS at the Newport Performing Arts Theater of Resorts World Manila. The event should have been 7 pm, but for some reason, it started around 8 pm instead. Mr. Jeff Evora initiated the occasion with brief dialogue about what are in store for us this year at the Resorts World Manila.

The Grand Fiesta Manila 2010 that will start on November 25 to 28 this year will hold different kinds of entertainment and fun awaits us. Rock with the best Pinoy Bands on November 25 at the RWManila Concert Grounds together with the launching of the Light Festival all around the RWM Complex. You could jam with Arnel Pineda and Ammo Band at the RWM Concert Grounds on November 26. On the 27th of November, the Grand Parade and the Earth, Wind and Fire Experience at the RWM Concert Grounds will ensue. And on the 28th, join the Grand Fiesta Run 2010 at the RWM Complex with great prizes await the winners.


After the fiesta details, Mr. Colin Kerr, jokingly half-Scotch, half-Filipino because of a blood transfusion, and the Executive Producer of the show, with his vigorous actions dominated the stage as he enlightened us what we should expect and gave some hints on how expectacular  the show will be.

Kaos is one of the most extravagant and ambitious production that depicts the archetypal romantic fairy tale but with the twist of adventure and mind boggling performances. It is a love yarn of a valiant prince, played by Pinoy Idol runner-up Gian Magdangal, with his beautiful maiden, starred Martha Joy (Canadian Idol finalist), in an incredible world of the future through a magical mirror, crafted thru the wonder of advisor, played by veteran actor Joel Trinidad, who longed acknowledgment by the sovereigns. With the help of the good wizard, played by Enrico Polo who happens to be the very trainer of Kaos - the white lion where the title of the show cropped up, Sito – the white tiger, and Betty – the yellow tiger.


It is a marriage of Broadway and Las Vegas' death-defying acts that will guarantee the approval of everyone. The breathtaking acts of the Human Time Machine from Columbia, the magnificent Cycle of Life from Spain, the feats of the world-renowned Defying Gravity Troupe from Guang Xi, China and The Power Duo from Europe that shows the gravity defying acts of strength that will make you gasp, combined with the heart-warming story and the exciting moves of the 2008 World Hip Hop Dance Champion, the Philippine All Stars.

The music is by the Manila Symphony Orchestra in the tuneful directions of Mr. Jed Balsamo and Mr. Jeffrey Solares as Assistant Musical Director. The Manila Symphony Orchestra is one of Asia’s oldest symphony orchestras. Disbanded in 1989, it was reinstated in 2001 by its longtime concertmaster. Many have been winners in the National Music Competitors for Young Artist (NAMCYA) and have represented the country in various international music festivals and workshops.

Overall art direction of Kaos production is done by Mr. Veniyamin Marshak of Belarus who has designed all aspects of theater, corporate events, and festivals over 35 years all over East and West Europe, Germany, Berlin, and Asia.

After the show tease, they’ve let us touched Sito and became the highlight of our experience that night. Followed by a press conference at the theater’s lobby, the main characters together with the producers, answered questions thrown at them. After all the questions, we were led to the Passion Restaurant at the Maxim’s Hotel for our dinner. We were served with Chinese Meat Platter, Chinese Egg Soup, Warm Shrimp Salad, Spicy Steamed Eggplant topped with meat, Deep-Fried Fish in Pomelo Sauce, Stir-Fried Rice, Dry Stewed Duck and Mango Sago for desert. It was a dinner where everyone at our table raised the white flag way before our desert even came. It was a fun night for us and a new beginning for me!

KAOS will start on 1st of December 2010 and will run for 6 months at the spectacular 1,500 seat Newport Performing Arts Theater (NPAT) of Resorts World Manila, newest dining, entertainment, and gambling playground. The theater has a VIP exclusive section and features state-of-the-art technology lighting and sound system. It also features the largest Euro LED wall ever built in the Philippines. The Euro LED wall is installed on the center of the stage, which serves as a backdrop for 3D sceneries. The theatre is also built with an elaborate fly system with 27 battens and a 9 meter diameter revolving stage with 3 sets of scissors type stage risers, each can be lifted up to 2 meters from the stage floor. The Newport Performing Arts Theater, metro’s biggest stage where magic and enchantment begins as it houses Broadway musicals, magic and illusions, and other big productions as well as concerts and pageants. It presents a fusion of sights and sounds through majestic productions, excellent performances and splendid shows, holding it as a marvelous place of entertainment.
