Fuerza Bruta in Manila

If you want something out of the ordinary, like a 'play' with no dialogue, no seats, no stage, very interactive, and a possibility that you will get wet by fake rainwater while watching, then Fuerza Bruta is for you.

Fuerza Bruta's literal translation is 'brute force'...I will leave it up to you to interpret the show in your own way, but for me, it was about the struggles that a man faces in his life.

Got to watch with my Gang sisters, Dr. A and Dr. N, and who would have thought that over the years, it was us three very athletic and sporty among our barkada would be the ones more inclined to watch shows such as these.  We're already planning on catching the next Cirque production coming this August ;)  The show was held in the Manila Hotel Tent, and your ticket, priced at P 2,500.00 entitiles you to two (2) drinks at the lounge.  And what a nice lounge it was!

Service staff were from Manila Hotel, so they were really on top of their game.  Loved the great service!




You are allowed to take photos and videos inside but don't be too engrossed in taking too much photos so you won't be distracted since the show was such a visual treat as well.


The man walking through life... 




 Yup, that's a pool which goes up and down, and which you can touch but only with your palms.  Fuerza Bruta production staff go around to guide you where you are supposed to go.




If you are a club goer, then you will definitely love this, since there's a lot of dancing and great club music.  It's as if you go partying at a club and there's a show you can watch at the same time.  There were patrons who brought kids, but in my opinion, this particular show and it's theme is not really for them babies ;) 

Overall, it was a different experience, we absolutely loved the concept, but we thought the rate was a bit too steep for a 60 minute show. 

But right after the show though, you are encouraged to go back to the lounge and party the night away!
