About Teatrino
Early 2006 was
the the opening of the Teatrino (Italian for "small theater") at the Promenade, Greenhills’ newest shopping and dining
destination.
The Teatrino
is similar to the Music
Museum, but is smaller, with a seating capacity of approximately 280 (which is less
than half the capacity of the Music Museum
across the street) and more intimate. It also has a bigger stage and a state–of–the–art sound and lighting
system. It’s a really nice theater and is ideal for theatrical productions, product launches and the like.
According to
Kuh Ledesma, pop singer and part-owner of the venue, what she and her business
partner aim to do is to create the Pinoy counterpart of New York’s
Great White Way and to expand the Filipino audience’s
range of entertainment options. "When people go to Broadway, they have a lot of shows and then they have all these restaurants,
all in one place. That’s what we’re trying to do here. We want to draw the people back to Greenhills," explains
the Pop Diva.
