Told through the sound and energy of a P-pop girl group, Gregoria Lakambini: A Pinay Pop Musical traces the journey of Gregoria de Jesus, from a spirited young woman in Caloocan to the Lakambini of the Katipunan, standing alongside Andres Bonifacio in both love and revolution. Framed through contemporary pop music, the musical places Oryang’s voice at the center of the narrative.
