Les Paul Pineda as One of the Five Attendants

1. Tell us something about yourself.

My name is Les Paul Pineda. As a son of a musician, I got the inheritance of music. Basically, I love music. Without music to me is like eating a burger without a patty….sucks right? Anyway, I’m 19 years old and studying as an Industrial Engineer in Don Bosco Technology Center. Besides formulating and solving mathematical problems and making basic furniture, I sing…I also dance but not as much as I sing…I also act but no as much as I dance. Music has been a huge part of my life. I may not be a recording artist or a celebrity but music is my life.


2. What made you decide to audition for Siddhartha?

Actually a friend of mine, Jingle, who is also part of the cast, invited me to audition for the play. Since Siddhartha was a musical play, I got really excited.

3. How did you feel when you were chosen as one of the five attendants?

When they gave out the roles, I was really excited that I got one of the roles as Siddhartha’s attendant. It even got more exciting when the playwright said that our scene (the 5 attendants) will be comical. I’m a crazy person so I’m really into the comical side.

4. Have you had any previous experience with musical theatre?

Yes. The first musical which I joined was rendition of Jesus Christ Superstar which was composed of mostly amateurs like me. Siddhartha was the second production I joined. And I can say that I’m lucky to be in this production
