This September, the spotlight turns to Rockwell’s Proscenium Theater as it prepares to debut — not just as a new stage, but as the setting for immersive, unforgettable experiences in the heart of the city, beginning with its first-ever production: a 9 Works Theatrical staging of “The Bodyguard The Musical.”

A gripping blend of romance, suspense, and spectacular music, The Bodyguard takes center stage in its Manila debut.
Inspired by the 1992 cinematic phenomenon starring Whitney Houston and Kevin Costner, the musical reimagines the story of global superstar Rachel Marron and the former Secret Service agent assigned to protect her. As danger draws near, so too does an unexpected love — set to a soundtrack that defined a generation.
The Bodyguard The Musical brims with the iconic hits that made the film unforgettable — “I Will Always Love You,” “I Have Nothing,” “Run to You,” and more — now performed by a powerhouse cast of local and international talent.
A smash hit on London’s West End and staged in over 15 countries worldwide, this global phenomenon brings its energy to Metro Manila. It’s a production that promises both power and vulnerability, glamour and grit, all within the atmospheric embrace of Rockwell’s newest landmark.
