Watch out, the ‘Man of Steelettos’ is coming!

MANILA, Philippines - In the Philippines, one man has successfully redefined the fine art of political satire. In his own funny way, stand-up comic/impersonator Jon Santos (photo) has become a chronicler of socio-political/pop culture with his wacky characters Ate Vi, Armida Sigyon-Makareyna, Sherap Espada (and his wife, Sen. Lhoy), Ate Shawie, Bro. Mike Volare, Tita Kory, Sen. Juan Flavor, Sen. Meeryam, Pres. Gloring, Krissy Anino, Pasyamsey Sapsap, Be-My-Lady-Gaga, Okrah Winfree, Charice Penpendesarapengco, Jessica Santos, Pineapple De Ap and the latest additions to the repertoire, no other than Ann-lakas ng Loob Curtis from the movie The Secret Unfair, Chacha May of Eat Bulagaga and His Excellency President Pinyoy.

Jon unveils again an even more exciting tapestry of new and familiar characters in Jon Santos: Man of Steelettos to be held in Teatrino Promenade, Greenhills on Sept. 13, 14, 27 and 28 at 8 p.m.

One of his endearing characters is Mommy D, Ang Pambansang Nanay ng Pambansang Kamao, The Mommy of Manny, The Pac-Mom of the Pac-Man, Congress-Mom of the Congressman. A true star-in-the-making, the pleasantly candid “mother figure” has been getting her fair share of the limelight lately, what with the slew of commercial endorsements and movie offers coming her way, and her struggles with her son’s career and spiritual journey.

Catch them and “all-star-cast of one,” with their takes on the latest hearings, investigations, hidden camera scandals, campaign ads, surveys, state visits and other headlines in a mini-“spoof-of-the-nation.”
