IMHO: Kaitlyn Santa Juana and Teo Briones - The 1st Actors of Filipino Descent To Lead Mainstream U.S. Movie, "Final Destination: Bloodlines"

5/17/2025

In my humble opinion, the new horror movie, "Final Destination: Bloodlines" is the first mainstream motion picture to have both lead actors of Filipino descent (part Filipino) - Kaitlyn Santa Juana and Teo Briones - to star and carry the entire film with Filipino culture sprinkled in!

Thoughts On "FABaret: A Christmas Kanta"

12/17/2024

0 Comments

 
What a way to welcome and celebrate the holidays! To perform one of my favorite writers, Charles Dickens and his novella "A Christmas Carol." To commemorate its first publication 181 years ago come December 19, 1843 with Filipinx Actors Barkada's stage presentation with "FABaret: A Christmas Kanta" written and directed by Kaitlyn Fae accompanied with music and standup. All in two days!

My first time to perform at the Yard Theater. 

To be cast as FAB's version of Bob Cratchit.

To prepare and perform with my friends. 

To entertain and put smiles on people's faces.

To passionately do what I love.

​Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays!
