                    [Title] => A Filipino-made Singaporean musical
                    [Summary] => 

My childhood friend Joel Trinidad and I came up with an idea of writing our own musical in the late ‘80s when we found it very hard to score tickets to Les Misérables and The Phantom of the Opera both in the West End and Broadway. So we started writing a draft of that Jane Seymour and Christopher Reeve movie Somewhere in Time, which we hoped would be a smash musical.

The prince chanced upon the sight of a great lion guarding the mouth of a river. To the Sri Vijayans, the lion was a powerful omen and a symbol of royalty. Sri Tri Buana gave his new capital Singapura the monicker "city of the lion" and moved his royal court to the island.
