We’ve Battled Monsters Before – Musical – ArtsWest Playhouse

“We’ve Battled Monsters Before” by Justin Huertas. Only 2 performers acted, played 9 instruments, & sang … not to mention one wrote the script, music, & lyrics. Great to see a Filipino-themed story in the underrepresented media/arts. #pinoy #pinay #babaylan #magic #filipinos

The Revolutionists – Play – ArtsWest

“The Revolutionists” play at ArtsWest Playhouse. Fun Marie Antoinette character. Novel chickflick/chicklit take on the French Revolution’s “Reign of Terror.” Wish there was more action though. #French #feminism #girlPower #sisterhood #basic #sassy #fierce #millennial #guillotine

Sunset Baby – Play – ArtsWest

“Sunset Baby” w/ ArtsWest Playhouse. For having only one scene location, this play surprisingly managed to hold my attention. A bit too much angst. Not sure what statement this play was trying to make. #NinaSimone

The Last World Octopus Wrestling Champion – Musical – ArtsWest

“The Last World Octopus Wrestling Champion” by Justin Huertas w/ ArtsWest Playhouse and Gallery. Proud to see a great musical that features pinoy/pinay characters & acknowledges Filipino culture! I’m also a sucker for the dangerous (but oh so comforting) hope that “love at first sight” & soulmates exist.
