ANG Filipino theater actor na si Red Concepcion ang kauna-unahang Filipino actor na gumanap bilang Amos Hart sa Broadway musical na ‘Chicago’.

Nag-debut na on Broadway si Red noong January 15 sa Ambassador Theater in New York City.

“Of course, there’s that adrenaline of like being on stage for the first time, but it was like, I felt like my whole life had led to that moment… So all those years of being in theater in the Philippines, struggling through that, it’s like, oh, wow. I guess it felt like it paid off,” sey ng aktor na 26 years ng umaarte sa teatro.

Gumanap na bilang Engineer si Red sa ‘Miss Saigon’ UK, Ireland and US tours. Noong July 2023 siya sumubok ng suwerte niya sa Big Apple. Muntik na niyang di puntahan ang open call audition para sa musical na Chicago.

“That day, parang I was a little depressed. I didn’t want to go. So I was like dito na lang ako sa kama, ayoko magpunta sa audition But I was like, no, no, you gotta go. You gotta go. You never know. That’s the job.

“A few weeks before Christmas, they were like we want to see you for a work session. So I did it and then maybe like three days before Christmas i got a call from my agent and they were like, oh yeah, you got it. It’s like, wow, Merry Christmas to us!”

Maraming natuwang Pinoy sa New York noong mapanood nila si Red sa ‘Chicago’. Muli raw kasing napatunayan ang husay ng Pinoy sa kahit anong role sa Broadway.
