Ronnie Liang’s evolution as an artist is in full swing and 2015 was his big breakout party.
After entering the scene as a balladeer, Ronnie has slowly transformed himself into a complete artist having transitioned effectively from singer to actor.
In the past year, Ronnie made huge strides in his career by stepping out of his comfort zone. He took a daring role in the independent film Esoterika: Manila and did his first theater stint as part of Resorts World Manila’s (RWM) Bituing Walang Ningning: The Musical.
While the former added merit to Ronnie’s talent as an actor, with the movie going on to win the Film Critics Choice Award during the 63rd FAMAS, the latter got him a well-deserved individual distinction by earning the plum for Best Actor in a Featured Role at the 28th Aliw Awards.
Ronnie’s gripping performance in the musical proved to be a significant point in his career as he includes theater in his growing repertoire as an artist. Also, having share the spotlight with other notable stage performers helped with his progression as a performer.
Joining Ronnie in the all-Filipino production are fellow Aliw Award winners Mark Bautista (Best Actor in a Musical), Cris Villonco (Best Actress in a Musical), Menchu-Lauchengco-Yulo (Best Actress in a Featured Role), and newcomer Monica Cuenco (Best New Female Artist). All in all, Bituing Walang Ningning: The Musical took home six awards out of a possible seven nominations, including the plum for Best Musical Production.
