Kapuso actress Glaiza De Castro ticked off a major milestone on her career bucket list as she officially marks her entry into the theater scene.
She is set to star in Ron Evangelista's "She's Electric", which is part of "SET C: BALAT KALABAW" for the upcoming Virgin Labfest (VLF) XXI: HUBO'T HUBAD. The said theater play was directed by the renowned director, JP Habac.
In her Instagram post, Glaiza couldn't hide her excitement as she shared the official poster of their theater play, accompanied by a caption where she expressed her amazement that from being just a spectator in theaters before, she is finally the one performing in a show.
“THIS IS IT! From watching theatre shows to finally acting on stage,” Glaiza wrote in the caption.
The Kapuso actress also shared that starring in this project is one of her dreams come true, which is why now that it is happening, she can finally check it off her bucket list.
She also described this blessing as something that came at what she calls the 'perfect timing' in her life and career.
“Tagal kong inaantay sa bingo card ko 'to,” she said.
“Ang saya lang na perfect yung timing ng lahat,” she added.
According to her, the project was an instant match from the moment she laid eyes on the material. She also expressed deep gratitude for the opportunity to collaborate with a stellar creative team, teasing a highly entertaining production ahead.
“First time I read the script kinilig na agad ako kaya super grateful for the chance to work alongside such talented and funny people (wala atang rehearsal na hindi kami tumatawa) kaya excited rin akong mapanood niyo,” Glaiza expressed.
Last April, Glaiza teased her fans and supporters in an interview with 24 Oras, where she mentioned the news that she would be starring in a theater play, which has now been revealed as "She's Electric".
“I'm also gonna be part of a theater play for the first time. Ang tagal ko nang gusto na subukan 'yung teatro and I was given the perfect timing, an opportunity, to do it finally,” Glaiza said.
The theater play "She's Electric" can be watched at the Tanghalang Ignacio Gimenez, CCP Black Box Theater, at 2 PM on June 11, 17, and 28, and at 5 PM on June 10, 21, and 27.
