Kicking off Fall & #FilipinoAmericanHistoryMonth!

Our autumn has already started off strong, and we're eager to finish off the year in the same way!

Workshop & Staged Reading of PLATINUM RECORD by Lindsey Twigg

We started off our October (a.k.a. Filipino American History Month) with a premiere staged reading of PLATINUM RECORD by emerging FilAm playwright Lindsey Twigg. Salamat to everyone who came out to support! Congratulations to the cast and company (pictured) to a successful premiere!

Putting on works about womxn of color, especially from WoC+ playwrights, is often met with marketing challenges and financial barriers. Grassroots and independent organizations like ours are typically the most effective in featuring marginalized voices. Your support ensure playwrights like Lindsey Twigg are heard and experienced!

​FilAmFest 2018

Continuing our #FilipinoAmericanHistoryMonth, we'll be presenting a short piece at this year's FilAmFest in National City! "How to Ride a Jeepney" by Lindsey Twigg is a short, two-person sketch about the intergenerational sharing of Filipino culture.

Directed by Christine Nathanson, starring Molly Adea and May Esteban.
