To cap TP's 25th Theater Season, we are presenting Eyeball: New Visions in Philippine Theater, an anthology of the best plays from the yearly festival of new works for the theater. This production features 4 plays that deal with theme, "Searching" and tackle man's search for love, for lost family bonds, for noble ideals, for closure and for missing loved ones.

A selection of the best plays from the Virgin Labfest:

The hilarious Bakit Wala Nang Nagtatagpo sa Philcoa Oberpas by Carlo Pacolor Garcia (Directed by Riki Benedicto) tells the story of a man and a woman who decide to meet at the Philcoa Overpass after months of flirting online

In Doc Resureccion, Gagamutin ang Bayan by Layeta Bucoy (Directed by Tuxqs Rutaqio), a well-meaning doctor runs for Mayor only to find out that the community he so wanted to help desires a different path for itself

In Reuel Molina Aguila’s Maliw (Directed by Chris Millado), five years after the forced-disappearance of her eldest daughter, a mother confronts the question: How does one close a chapter still to be written? The play is set after her family celebrates her eldest daughter’s 30th birthday.

Nick Pichay’s Isang Araw sa Karnabal (Directed by Chris Millado) is about two former activists, both with missing loved ones, meeting again after a long time and attempting to mend broken ties.
