"Theatrical."
Ganito inilarawan ni Moy Ortiz ng The CompanY ang upcoming show ng kanilang grupo kasama si Jon Santos at Whiplash: ang Rom-Com (A Romantic Comedy Special).
Nakapanayam ng PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) at ilang entertainment press si Jon at Moy kanina, Enero 11, sa kanilang mini-presscon sa Uno Restaurant sa Tomas Morato, Quezon City.
"Rom-Com is not really linked lang with Valentine's," ang sagot ni Jon nang tanungin kung bakit Rom-Com ang napili nilang panagalan ng kanilang concert.
"'Yong title na Rom-Com, naisip 'yon ni Moy with no timetable of project in mind because it's one of the muse called to him, gave him a title, na napa-what-if siya."
SMALL WORLD. Magka-ibang industriya ang kinabibilangan ni Jon at ng grupo ni Moy na The CompanY.
Si Jon ay isang sikat na komedyante at TV host, samantala ang grupo ni Moy ay kilala para sa kanilang mga OPM ballad love songs.
Ikinuwento sa amin ni Jon kung paano nabuo ang plano para sa concert na ito.
"We are always running into each other in the TV world," masiglang panimula ni Jon.
"I was a TV host and they're from the OPM world, they were getting invited to the TV world.
"Nagkikita lang kami sa likod ng corporate shows 'cause I'm not exposed to the world of weddings as much as they were.
"Then somebody invested on a show called Quick Change. Quick Change brought us together in 2009, it was an independent producer.
"We're now finally together in a show that is not a corporate show.
"After that, aside from naging magkaibigan kami outside of work, I've seen their shows from the audience; they've seen my shows from the audience.
"Nagkaroon ng parang seed na, 'uy, vault-in-able naman 'yong aming mga details.'"
Ang sinasabi ni Jon na Quick Change concert ay naganap noong Hulyo 31 at Agosto 1, sa Star Theater, CCP Complex, sa Roxas Blvd., Pasay City.
