MANILA BULLETIN
Singers Christian Bautista and Karylle have been taping for their Asia-wide TV series, "The Kitchen Musical," in Singapore and they are happy to share their experiences so far.
“What makes it very exciting is that everyone adds to the show,” Christian mused
on “Showbiz News Ngayon,” June 30. “If you have [any] input [for] the show, you can share what you’ve experienced—it can be from you’ve learned in your past experiences in cooking, in acting, in singing—and help each other. Tulungan talaga and we’re just so happy that we’re part of it,” he expounded.
And while the cast members come from all over Asia, with “some Filipinos, some are Singaporeans, Hong Kong nationals, Chinese and Malaysian-English actors,” the romantic balladeer feels “we blend well together.”
In the TV series, Christian plays the role of Daniel, a sous chef and childhood friend to rich girl Madeline (Karylle), a fresh graduate from a culinary school who embarks on a journey of self discovery. “Parang hard work," Karylle said of her role, adding, "It’s everyday... our working hours are shorter... [but] ‘yung work load paiba-iba. Kunyari dancing in the morning, acting in the afternoon and then recording after... medyo nag-a-adjust ka dahil tuloy-tuloy,” she explained.
And as the show's title suggests, Karylle also had to make additional adjustments. "There’s school for me. I have to learn how to cook. I have to learn all the terms, all the French
dishes....” she shared.
The 13-episode “The Kitchen Musical” will be shown in 19 countries, including the Philippines. An original production by the Singapore-based The Group Entertainment, the series is set to pilot in the country in October.
