I still remember the first time I watched a Bisaya theater play. I was still new in Cebu back then and I can barely understand the language but I really enjoyed show. Fast forward to 2018 and now I can understand and speak Bisaya, I’m super excited to watch the Bisaya musical, Scharon Mani.

Set in the vibrant seaside town of Dumaguete, the play revolves around Charlene, who’s dream of becoming a star seems to be within reach until a series of unfortunate events compels the young dreamer to sell chicharon and mani. Her life as a vendor intersects with other children and characters who are striving to define their life purpose.

Scharon Mani was a musical hit from Dumaguete, and now it’s the Cebuano’s turn to witness this masterpiece. The Cebu show was produced by Cebu’s premiere theater communications company, 2TinCans Philppines, Inc. and front-lined by some of Cebu’s topnotch theater actors.

Here’s a sample performance of the song Dumzville by the cast of Scharon Mani.

Scharon Mani was an adaptation from a book by Junsly Kitay and utilizes songs by The Belltower Project. It will be staged at the Centerstage of SM Seaside City Cebu on December 7, 8, and 9, with Matinee performance at 2pm and Gala performance at 7:30pm.

Tickets are priced at ₱350, ₱600, ₱1000, and are available via Yapsody and Ticket2Me websites. For more details, visit 2TinCans.ph and follow them on Facebook and Instagram.
