When I first heard of mega musical KUNG PAANO AKO NAGING LEADING LADY from playwright/illustrator Carlo Vergara, sex & sexual imagery was the last thing on anyone’s mind. Dalanghita productions’ KUNG PAANO AKO NAGING LEADING LADY will run in PETA from May 9 to June 7, 2015.

Menchu Lauchengco Yulo is one of the most beloved theater actresses but also among the senior members of the cast, was very much concerned with her mid riff revealing costume.

By show time however, her abs were ripped. She credited the extra aerobic exercises before each rehearsal and play date. She also made sure not to eat a meal immediately before each performance.

What really convinced me that Leading Lady had a sexier look was one particular photo that I took of Red Concepcion as Itak-Atak. I’m sure the blocking was purely coincidental along with my lower angle from which I was shooting. I last saw Red in Resort’s World Manila’s production of Priscilla Queen of The Desert as the Gayest of Gays: Felicia. Here he is now playing a macho super villain Itak Atak.

Unintentional blocking /camera angle showed Red Concepcion (Itak Atak) tasting Kim Molina’s (Viva) generous bosom. Dalanghita productions’ KUNG PAANO AKO NAGING LEADING LADY will run in PETA from May 9 to June 7, 2015. Photo By Jude Bautista
The photo I took which had a PURELY accidental angle, seemed like his mouth was on Kim Molina’s (Viva) generous bosom. I’m sure it was unintentional for ALL parties. But was sexy nevertheless. Itak Atak’s pose of holding his Itak directly at crotch level was not accidental at all though.

Of course everyone’s raving about Markki Stroem (Leading Man) and Bituin Escalante’s (Mely) intimate scenes as well. Theater and music fans who have been admiring Bito’s vocals and acting are so happy with her leading role for this musical. She’s equally gratified having a young hunk in Markki as her leading man.

In the final group shot I caught Bito teasing co star Nar Cabico that she has hot scenes with Markki. The role also allowed Markki to show off his abs and muscled torso.

If costumes don’t reveal skin they’re skin tight, body-hugging leather. KUNG PAANO AKO NAGING LEADING LADY displays the penchant and skill of director Chris Martinez for humor. The wildly creative imagination of Set and Costume designer Tuxqs Rutaquio successfully brought to life characters created by Carlo Vergara.
