Pre-selling rates are US$4.99 from August 17-30, and US$7.99 from September 15-November 15. The production can be watched within 48 hours upon rental.
For this streaming, two sets of casts will be available for viewing. The first set features Tanya Manalang as Young Joy, Reb Atadero as Young Hector, Vic Robinson as Young Emman, Lance Reblando as Young Anthony, David Ezra as Hector, Myke Salomon as Emman, Rafa Siguion-Reyna as Anthony, Carla Guevara Laforteza as Joy, Elisha Campos as Ligaya, and Paolo O’Hara as Banlao.
