Last weekend, together with hundreds of personalities from media and other fields, we were given an opportunity to get a glimpse on this year's most anticipated stage play of Resorts World Manila - The King and I. A story that shares to the world the very rich and colorful Kingdom of Siam, this exciting and romantic show will be starting this September 15 at the Newport Performing Arts Theater, Resorts World Manila.

Staging at the grandest and most state-of-the-art theater in the country, The King and I also boasts of promising new sets of production props' lights, sound, and video technologies and even the most exquisitely designed wardrobe helmed by no less than Philippine fashion icon Rajo Laurel.
And on the Preview and Press Conference hosted by Resorts World Manila last Saturday, they took us to that lovely world filled with colorful outfits, stunning production design and lovely music that reminded us how respect and love should be on top of all.
The story of The King and I is one of the most influential stories of all time. Originally Anna and the King of Siam by Margaret Landon, Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II took the story to a musical stage play, which first seen at Broadway's St. James Theater back in 1951.
And since Resorts World Manila staying true to its reputation as the primary venue for superb world-class entertainment, the country’s one-stop, non-stop haven for superlative thrills, they are offering their third theater production with this story.
