Newport Resorts Musicals earlier hinted that its next musical production will be based on the song of Parokya ni Edgar during the closing night of the 2023 run of “Ang Huling El Bimbo.”
“Ang Huling El Bimbo” is the company’s jukebox musical production based on the music of another 90s OPM band, Eraserheads.
The musical was first staged in 2018. It was later streamed online for free in May 2020 and restaged earlier this year.
