New York based theater director Jesca Prudencio, with her company of Manila theater artists, embarked on an international documentary devised theater process to hear from real people directly affected by the country’s biggest issue. After three weeks of research talking with various Manileňos and Davaoeños, the company has devised a theater piece using interviews, transcripts and karaoke to present their answers and questions in front of a live audience!
This workshop was presented for 3 performances to packed theater houses. People Of Interested will be returning to Manila in June-July 2019 to continue development on this project.
