This just got in. Courtesy of 9 Works Theatrical Facebook page, the cast of The Wedding Singer Musical is officially introduced. And look who's joining the cast.





MYX VJ and TV Personality Iya Villania will soon be joining a cast of professional stage actors and set to play Julia Sullivan, the role originated in the New Line Cinema film by Drew Barrymore. Also joining Iya is Singer-actress and TV Personality Nikki Valdez who will play Holly, Julia’s bubbly, uninhibited and lovable cousin.

Nikki (Holly) and Iya (Julia) strike a pose.  Be ready to catch them on October 23 when The Wedding Singer Musical Premieres

Not really sure if this is the first time Iya and Nikki will be joining a professional stage musical but so far in the course of 5 years (when I started watching musicals here in manila), I haven't heard that this two ever joined one. So this news just really hit me hard that I forgot I'm already sleepy and make me more excited to see this Manila production of Wedding Singer Musical.

Robbie (Gian Magdangal) is caught between Julia (Iya Villania) and ex-girlfriend Linda (Myrene Santos)

The rest of the cast includes Gian Magdangal(Robbie Hart), Johann dela Fuente(George), Lorenz Martinez(Sammy), Enchang Kaimo(Rossie), Jeremy Aguado(Glen Guglia), Myrene Santos(Linda), Shiela Valderrama(Julia Alternate) and Analin Bantug (Holly Alternate).
