A Funny Thing Happened On the Way to the Forum

Enrico followed his heart to his high school's theater's presentation of A Funny Thing Happened to the Way to the Forum--a comedy that starred Nathan Lane. Deer Valley High School presented the play from February 6 to 8 and 13 to 15.

He got a small role as a soldier and also understudied to the role of Hero. But Nico's Grade 7 teacher told me, "There are no small roles, just small actors."


Phillia and Hero




Proving himself a hard-worker, he used what he learned in Ateneo Children's Theater (ACT) to balance school and play. I think he had a good time because he has found a group of friends and has now adjusted better to life here.

Nico is only a sophomore and is already planning to join the next play in the Spring.

He looks really good on stage! Ang guapo, more so than the hero. Keep up the good work. Maybe he will be famous one day - California is the place to be. I'm a fan already.

Pogi! Nicole was telling her classmates that she has a hot cousin who lives in San Francisco. If he were here, she would've asked him to be a classmate's date at their junior prom. The other hot cousin is Paui. He plays the guitar pa. Heh heh. Rhea

Minotte, I watched this play years back in Tita Bing's house. She had the betamax tape. This film made me roll with laughter! Sayang ang layo. I'm sure I would have enjoyed seeing it live, and with Nico in it, all the more! Rhea
