Beginning April 18, the heightened drama about the intimate hopes of a woman who struggles to beat the odds of societal prejudices will be exposed. Join one of today’s sexiest actresses, the alluring and exquisite teen star Jackie Rice as she grabs the limelight in the inspiring and riveting story of sacrifice, forgiveness and love in Dear Friend presents TISAY.
The four-part episode of Tisay shows the fate of a number of women in today's society. Jackie gives life to Ella/Shiva’s character, a college student forced to work in a risky and dangerous business as a club dancer in order to finish her studies.
Ella is a typical hardworking student who not only excels in academics but also has a good reputation in school. She would do anything just to get a college degree which compelled her to lead a double life.
Unknown to many, Ella works as a club dancer at night to make ends meet for her family and support her studies. Despite this dirty job, she tries to remain respectable and keeps a distance with her customers.
Many guys in school are struck by Ella’s beauty and one of them is Adrian, a pre-med student, who comes from a well-off family.
He courts Ella but she refuses his love since her priorities are different. He didn’t stop pursuing her and eventually, Ella is smitten with Adrian ’s charm and overwhelmed by his resolve to win her heart.
Just when things seem to be going smoothly for the couple, she discovers that Adrian ’s dad is one of her regular customers. Ella’s secret life is revealed to everyone and Adrian , devastated upon learning the truth, dumps her.
How will Ella handle the pressure of being reviled by the man she loves? Can Ella find inner peace and freedom from any form of discrimination from the people around her? Will this revelation lead to self-acceptance and self-appreciation?
Dear Friend’s season-ender episode is led by Director Jun Lana together with a pool of seasoned scriptwriters headed by Denoy Navarro-Punio. Rounding up the cast are Joross Gamboa, Chynna Ortaleza, Ryza Cenon, Jade Lopez, Sheree, Jay Perillo, Mariz Ricketts, and Rex Cortez.
The allure of Jackie in the lead and natural charisma of Joross confirm their undeniable onscreen chemistry. Jackie’s dance scenes and confrontations in the episode capture the drama and sensuality, which are truly moving and inspiring.

EUGENE DOMINGO PLAYS GUIDANCE COUNSELOR IN FIRST TIME
Eugene Domingo is one of the busiest comediennes these days. When she’s not hosting for GMA Network’s late night comedy talk show, Cool Center , then she’s probably promoting her movie, Working Girls, or her SRO Cinemaserye episode, Hot Mama.
Lucky for First Time, the former theater actress was able - and very much willing - to find time in her hectic schedule to still join the cast of the GMA’s youth-oriented series topbilled by fast-rising trio of Barbie Forteza, Joshua Dionisio and Jake Vargas.
Eugene will portray the role of Barbarella Buncalan Jackson, the school’s guidance counselor who will play a crucial role in the way Cyndi (Barbie), Lukas (Joshua), Baste (Jake), and the rest of the St. Claire students handle their qualms and queries as teenagers.
“Iba naman yung role ko dito”, says Eugene . “Isa akong guidance counselor. Pero syempre comedy pa rin. Kasi di ba kahit in real life, yung mga guidance counselor, aside from having to exude an authoritative image, more importantly dapat approachable and sympathetic sa mga estudyante because their job is to give the students advice and point them to the right direction.”
Eugene, who was last seen in a teleserye via the romantic-comedy Adik Sa ‘Yo as the mysterious Fatima , has this to say about working with the newest and youngest protégés of the Kapuso Network: “Masaya at excited ako na makasama sa First Time. Madalas kong marinig na mahuhusay yung tatlong bata [Barbie, Joshua, Jake, etc] at ngayon napatunayan ko na talaga. Masisipag sila, magagalang… Nararamdaman ko na gusto talaga nilang matuto at maging magagaling na artista.”
Eugene Domingo will surely add fun to the already very exciting series as she plays the funny Barbarelle Buncalan Jackson in GMA Network’s toprating primetime program, FIRST TIME, weeknights on GMA Telebabad. (30)
