Xyriel Manabat and the giant beanstalk in “Wansapanataym” (Oct 27)

ABS-CBN’s top-rating fantasy-drama anthology “Wansapanataym” teaches the whole family the value of hard work this Saturday (October 27).

In the ‘Jing-Jing and the Giant’ episode, award-winning child actress Xyriel Manabat will give life to the role of Jing-jing, an obedient young girl who always helps her mother.

Despite their diligence in selling vegetables in the market, Jing-Jing and her mother would always end up penniless because of her lazy stepdad and brothers. One day, Jing-Jing discovered a magic beanstalk where she became friends with a giant who gave her huge vegetables to sell in the market. Will Jing-jing be able to teach her stepfather and siblings to work hard when they find out about the beanstalk?

Together with Xyriel in ‘Jing-Jing and the Giant’ are Isay Alvarez, Dennis Padilla, Janus del Prado, Yong An Chiu, Aaron Junatas, and Louella de Cordova. It is written by Yam Tanangco and directed by Avel Sunpongco.
