Malillin, the man behind the success of Club Mwah, said he put up the club with
co-proprietor Cris Nicolas just for the fun of it. So what makes Club Mwah a hit?
For starters, there's the 70s and 80s trip-down-memory lane kind of music. Show
girls perform excerpts from the various musicals injecting color, glamour, and
extravagance - the very words to describe the Club Mwah shows. For
its first year anniversary, Club Mwah presenting Follies de Mwah, an array of
Broadway, Las Vegas, and Moulin Rouge - inspired song and dance production numbers.
The
repertoire boasts of a Gold Finger routine with the performers in metallic gold
costumes; a Japanese geisha routine; Sarah Brightman sequence; a How Much is That
Dog in the Window sequence, the Car Wash production number complete with an actual
motorcycle driven on the electronic dance floor of the Club, and full Broadway
inspired opening and closing plumed production numbers in fuschia and aqua blue
combination. 
In
addition to Club Mwah's in house shows from Thursdays to saturdays, the theater
plays host to Funkadelic, Hotlegs' 2005 yearend offering featuring dance and production
routines: lovers swinging around on a harness, an Indian inspired repertoire,
a dramatic lovers' sequence among many others. Club Mwah will also preview Bedazzled
