See it if you like unusual musicals. Gd score (son-of-Sondheim sound), lousy lyrics. Pointless plot. Gd voices. Choreog hit or miss. Random projectns.

Don't see it if you want a coherent piece. Some gd songs, but show is too long w no payoff. Inconsistent chars. Talented actors deserve better vehicle.

See it if Interesting themes: father-son rift, loss of identity, loyalty vs. honesty, Filipino culture. Interesting music.

See it if you like seeing shows with a different point of view, tackling big themes of faith, truth, family and trust,original beautiful music & songs
