                    [Summary] => 



In  "Glorious", Repertory Philippines'' current onstage presentation, Joy Virata portrays a diva  who can’t carry a tune. It is a feat for a highly musical soprano like Joy to sing off-key, and she "triumphs" as Florence Foster-Jenkins each time she does, with the unwavering support of loyal friends — Dorothy, her admirer St. Clair Byfield, and  piano accompanist Cosme McMoon who desperately tries to evade telling her about her inadequacies for fear of offending her.

                    [Summary] => 



In  "Glorious", Repertory Philippines'' current onstage presentation, Joy Virata portrays a diva  who can’t carry a tune. It is a feat for a highly musical soprano like Joy to sing off-key, and she "triumphs" as Florence Foster-Jenkins each time she does, with the unwavering support of loyal friends — Dorothy, her admirer St. Clair Byfield, and  piano accompanist Cosme McMoon who desperately tries to evade telling her about her inadequacies for fear of offending her.
