Trumpets shares Journey to find "The Bluebird of Happiness"

Trumpets is back!
Not that they left but it has been a while since I've experiences a Trumpets show. This time, taking flight into a big comeback with the production "The Bluebird of Happiness". I was lucky enough to be a part of the group who gets to have a sneak peek of the production at Greenbelt 5 last week,

Mr. Audie Gemora who is the president of Trumpets was there, welcomed the guests. He shared that on Trumpets' 23rd year, they are back with the musical to teach the true meaning of happiness.

Trumpets is Asia's first professional gospel theater group and is known for its blockbuster musicals for the whole family but other than providing entertainment value. The group makes sure that every material they put us as an eternal message that audiences can take home with them.

And about the production, Mr. Gemora added that “Nowadays, people do not know what will make them happy anymore, we seek material things and do crazy things that sometimes make us forget what is essential.” He also added that sometimes happiness is already staring at us in the face but we sadly do not recognize it.

Jaime del Mundo who is the director of the show says that this is one of the reasons why Trumpets sees the importance and timeliness of this show. “Everyone in this world is looking for happiness in one form or another and through this musical we hope that the audience sees themselves reflected in the lives of the central characters, Mytyl and Tyltyl.”
