Fond of theatres and concerts

Every once in a while I find myself wanting to attend concerts, plays or theatre musicals, or other special events. Call it an interest. So far I’ve seen the following at the state theatre: Cyrano de Bergerac, Les Miserables, They’re playing our song, Mamma Mia, Cabaret, and Lion King. I will be watching the Phantom of the Opera in May, and I can’t wait. If I had the choice (and the money of course) I would be going to these events once a month! I’ve watched John Mayer and a few other popular (and great) singers perform live as well!

I would have wanted to see Miss Saigon as well but I missed out on the tickets! I’ve been told that Kylie Minogue will be performing in Belfast towards the end of June 2008. Should you needaticket to see her live, visit needAticket.ie They are a fast, reliable and professional booking service, that offers a good price as well!

The Phantom of the Opera @ Lyric Theatre, Star City


I have always liked watching musicals. And the Phantom of the Opera is no exception!

The Phantom of the Opera will be staged in Sydney at the Lyric Theatre from May 11 until July 20 (2008) and is directed by Harold Prince. Andrew Lloyd Webber's Phantom of the Opera is a much acclaimed musical that only the best artists are chosen for the play. In Sydney, 'the' Anthony Warlow is slated to cast as the Phantom who haunts the corners of the Paris Opera house. While Ana Marina and Julie Goodwin (alternate) plays Christine, the young soprano who's talents and beauty captivates the Phantom so deep that the Phantom becomes obssessed with her.

The Phantom of the Opera has been re-made into a film sometime in 2004, but I reckon watching it in the theatre, as a musical would be way better. Imagine and see the characters coming to life, would be just phenomenal! Hubby and I are watching this on its third week's schedule.. And I just can't wait! We have Dress Circle Seats! Woooopeee!

Raising bilingual kids

I am pretty proud about our eldest being able to speak my mother tongue (Filipino). As young as one year old we taught her to speak Tagalo...
