This September, Rockwell levels up Makati’s entertainment scene with the grand opening of its newest gem: the Proscenium Theater. And to kick things off, they’re pulling no punches, the venue’s first-ever production is none other than The Bodyguard The Musical.

If the title sounds familiar, you probably remember the hit 1992 film starring Whitney Houston and Kevin Costner. Now, the story that defined an era is hitting the Manila stage with a bold new twist, blending romance, danger, and iconic songs in one electrifying show.

A New Stage Rises in Makati as The Bodyguard Musical Kicks Off Rockwell’s Proscenium Theater

The Bodyguard The Musical follows the story of Rachel Marron, a global music superstar whose life is turned upside down when an unknown threat targets her. Enter her new protector, a former Secret Service agent assigned to keep her safe. But as the tension rises, so does an unexpected connection between the two.

What’s a love story without the music? Expect powerhouse vocals and all the chart-topping hits you know and love, including “I Will Always Love You,” “I Have Nothing,” and “Run to You.” With a mix of local and international talent, this staging brings West End-level spectacle to Metro Manila and offers to deliver both the glamour and the grit.

“This musical is about power and vulnerability, love and courage,” says a spokesperson from 9 Works Theatrical, the team bringing the show to life. “We’re thrilled to bring it to the Proscenium Theater, where the energy of the story and the venue come together to create something truly special.”

Already a global hit performed in over 15 countries, this show is finally making its highly anticipated Manila debut. The excitement? Totally justified.
