A career in medicine seemed to be the most obvious career path for Juan Carlo “JC” Galano after earning a degree in occupational therapy. But then, show biz beckoned.
“But the desire to act and be onstage has always been there; it was just overshadowed by our dream for me to become a doctor. Many Filipino households dream of having a nurse or a doctor. But I also have this creativity and drive to perform. And I hope I can make it big and leave a mark in the industry,” he said.
It was the play’s musical director, Vincent de Jesus, who urged him to meet the director, Missy Maramara. “I guess for future projects, we can do something that leans toward theater. But the aim now is to come up with new, original songs that people will love. I would like to explore that. I’m trying to write songs. I’m experimenting with my vocal placements,” related JC who grew up listening to local bands like Rivermaya and the Eraserheads.
