Emerging from a three-year hiatus, Teatro ni Juan debuts its original pandemic productions to a live audience with ‘TAWID: Remote to Stage’. In partnership with Tahan Na Cafe, Teatro ni Juan pioneers the traverse of online materials from the digital space to the physical stage as TAWID breaks free from the constraints of virtual performances that pay tribute to our collective journey of crossing over the new normal.
From the audio drama anthology OYAYI: MANIGO (adapted from ‘Ang mga Ibon na Lumilipad’) and BONAK KIDS (adapted from Ili-ili Tulog Anay’) reimagines well-loved nursery rhymes into cautionary tales; an excerpt from the crowdsourced, all-femme production SINA MARIA that grounds on the realities of womanhood; and selections of demos from the musical-in-development BKNW Rising, a tragic retelling of the Bakunawa myth.
