Onstage This October 14! HANDOG: An Original Filipino Musical Explores the Profound Meaning of Giving and Self-Discovery

This is the story of the much-awaited original Filipino musical HANDOG as it attempts to answer this profound question at the iconic Metropolitan Theater in Manila City on October 14, 2023, with two heartwarming shows at 3PM and 8PM.

Produced by J&A Productions, consisting of BNI Eagles members, namely Engr. Carol Rufino, IDr. Loubelie Gardiola, Mr. JC Lumba, and Mr. Erwin Reyes.

HANDOG will tell the story of Gary, Paul, Amanda, Uncle Ped, Chel, Mike, Robert, and Lizette as they navigate loss, sacrifice, and the redemption that comes from embracing the power of giving and love.

By the end of the musical, the team that makes up the whole production—from the artists and project head to the chapters of BNI and an array of community builders—hopes to ignite BNI’s seven core values: givers gain, building relationships, life-long learning, traditions and innovation, a positive and supportive attitude, recognition, and accountability.

In a press conference for HANDOG, organized by PMCM Events Management, April Villarta–Manuud, overall Project Director and Creative Team’s Managing Director and Editor-in-Chief, said: “Join us in forging connections that unlock our potential, fostering ‘UNWAVERING SUPPORT’ and embracing BNI’s core values.”
