Musical Theater Dream Project – Cebu
March 16th, 2011
The video is an excerpt of a “progress report video” created to support a LIVE musical production number performed in Taiwan as part of BLIA-Cebu’s special gift for Ven. Master Hsing Yun in celebration of his natal day.
It highlights the dream that evolved after the successful run of Siddhartha, the musical which featured an all Cebuano cast and crew.
Join us in making the dream a reality.

Summer Camp 2008 A Success!
April 2nd, 2008
BLIA YAD Summer Camp 2008 was a great success! Different representatives from different chapters across the Philippines joined the summer camp, from Manila, Ilo-Ilo, Bacolod, of course Cebu and special guest from the Siddhartha cast also joined the event.
Everyone enjoyed the camp to the fullest. The schedule was a surprise and nobody knew what was going to happen on the 3 days of the camp. Little did we know that everything was already planned ahead and it was up to us to enjoy and learned from the events.
We actually had a small amazing race held in Cebu City. From Fuente to Magellan’s cross to other parts of the city to complete different task. It was enjoyable for everyone and even more exciting for those that were not from Cebu as they get to tour around the city for the first time.
The last was a big surprise for the cast of Siddhartha since Ms. Daisy Baad actually came over to give an exercise for the attendees. Everyone really enjoyed what she presented.
As a side note, this was one of the most enjoyable summer camp everyone attended. Next year will be Manila and everyone is looking forward into the activities plan for next year.
So for everyone, till we meet again next year for Summer Camp 2009!!!
