MANILA, PHILIPPINES — Request sa Radyo (Wunschkonzert/Request Program), a play by Franz Xaver Kroetz, is a masterpiece of modern theatre, transforming the mundane into the extraordinary through silence and leaving the audience contemplating the depths of solitude. For its Philippine debut, the unique theatrical experience features two of the Philippines’ most celebrated actors in alternating performances.
Presented by Ayala Land, GMG Productions, John B. Echauz and Joanna Silayan-Echauz, Bobby Garcia and Clint Ramos, and with BPI as the official bank partner, the play is the coming together of some of the country’s bests. All multi-awarded and all-considered sources of Philippine pride, this project delves into their vision and dedication to bringing the powerful and compelling narrative to the Philippine audience.
