Her time has come. The country’s Comedy Princess, Pokwang, is geared up for her first major concert entitled “Endangered Species” sure to bring out the animal-of-a-comedienne in her starting October 15 until October 17 at the Aliw Theater, produced by Camera Entertainment Production and line-produced by ASAP Live.
The different facets of Pokwang will be uncloaked in front of hundreds of people in her three-night show. Unleashing every piece of talent she has—from singing to dancing, from acting and impersonating, Pokwang will surely fill the whole venue with laughs and giggles. “Noong rehearsal palang tawa na kami ng tawa. Tiyak talaga na lahat ng manonood uuwi ng luhaan… luhaan dahil sa kakatawa,” Pokwang enthused.
Pokwang, though hurled by intrigues every now and then, has remained strong throughout her six-year old career in show business. “Alam ko noong pumasok ako sa showbiz na pagdadaanan ko ang mga intriga,” Pokwang shared. She added, “Pero ‘di yoon rason para panghinaan ako ng loob. Tuloy pa rin ang buhay siyempre. Tuloy pa rin ang pagbibigay ng saya. Eto nga at may isa na namang opportunity para makapagbigay aliw sa mga tao.”
The Clown in a Million Grand Winner revealed that though she has performed several times in front of thousands of people, Pokwang still finds it nerve-racking to perform in front of a crowd, big or small. “Hanggang ngayon ninenerbyos pa rin ako. Paano kung hindi matawa sakin yung mga tao ‘di ba? (laughs) Ako na lang tatawa sa sarili ko,” Pokwang quipped.
A list of the hottest stars of today will be joining Pokwang in her highly-anticipated concert: Pooh, Chokoleit, Elizabeth Ramsey, and Mahal; (October 15) Sam Milby and Zsazsa Padilla; (October 16) Mommy Dionesia, Melai Cantiveros, Regine Velasquez and Piolo Pascual; (October 17) Melai Cantiveros, John Lloyd Cruz and Kuh Ledesma.
