In response to audiences’ demand, Barefoot Theatre Collaborative is bringing Bar Boys: A New Musicalback for a limited five-week run this October 2024.
The musical will run from October 4 to November 3, 2024, at the Power Mac Center Spotlight Blackbox Theater, Circuit Makati.
Bar Boys‘ cast members Benedix Ramos, Alex Diaz, Jerom Canlas, Omar Uddin, and Sheila Francisco announced the rerun during Mula sa Buwan‘s curtain call on September 1, 2024. The five cast members will reprise their roles, with further casting yet to be announced.
Bar Boys is an adaptation of Kip F. Oebanda’s well-loved 2017 Pista ng Pelikulang Pilipino film. It follows the lives of four young hopefuls: Erik, Chris, Torran, and Josh. In their journey to become lawyers, their dreams, ideals, and even friendships are challenged by the demands of law school, the pressures of love and life, and the harsh reality of the world.
The musical will feature a book and lyrics by Pat Valera, who will return to direct alongside Mikko Angeles. Myke Salomon, who composed the adaptation’s original songs, also serves as the musical director. Jomelle Era will return for movement direction.
Opening weekend tickets are now available via Ticket2Me (bit.ly/barboystickets).
