“Ang Huling El Bimbo” Announces Final Run this July
In a video released by the Full House Theater Company, “Ang Huling El Bimbo” is slated for its final run this July to August at the Performing Arts Theater of Resorts World Manila.

The show stars Gian Magdangal and David Ezra as Hector, OJ Mariano and Myke Salomon as Emman, Jon Santos and Rafa Siguion-Reyna as Anthony, Menchu Lauchengco-Yulo and Carla Guevara Laforteza as Joy, Reb Atadero and Bibo Reyes as Young Hector, Boo Gabunada and Nicco Manalo as Young Emman, Lance Reblando and Phi Palmos as Young Anthony (originally played by Topper Fabregas), and Tanya Manalang and Gab Pangilinan as Young Joy.
