A round-up celebrating the year’s best stage performances!

This Fitz Bitana and Marco Viaña-directed telling of the Filipino epic is a bit overlong and uneven, but overall a satisfactory showcase of native culture.

No surprises here.

Tarek El Tayech and Miguel Vasquez give clear, compelling performances in this bare-bones, straightforward staging.

Lea Salonga’s astounding transformation as Mrs. Lovett make this Bobby Garcia-directed retelling not one to miss.

Bibeth Orteza’s adaptation of Steinbeck’s ‘Of Mice and Men’ sets a standard for adaptations, local plays, and theater-as-advocacy.

There’s nothing new in this Laurice Guillen-directed, Nestor Torre-penned, and Ryan Cayabyab-composed musical about the Jesus story. 

Director Robbie Guevara steps up to the challenge of staging one of Sondheim’s most controversial works.
