In this one case, it’s okay to look back! We asked Jon Jon and Isa Briones about the first time they ever saw Hadestown as they approach their final performance tomorrow.
Last Sunday matine was very emotional. It’s getting harder as the days dwindle down to our( Isa, Ani and myself) final show of @hadestown . We’ll see what happens this Sunday. Last 8 shows. Love to all ❤️

16 more shows(for me, 10 for Isa) of @hadestown . It’s gonna be a fun and bitter sweet last 2 weeks for me. Come join us in the underworld.

In this show I play a Filipino/American dad and husband. I teach all my kids our Filipino cultures and tradition and even some myths. I teach them arnis, I cook Pinoy food for them and in this scene my wife(Benni Latham), Dot and I dance the Tinikling. We are a Fil/African/American family and we embrace each other’s culture. I haven’t even mentioned the amazing action!
