Hello Philippines, a one act musical, is a humorous take on call center culture. Team leader Tiffany tells five agents from his team that one of them is going to get axed. The twist, however, is that he will leave that decision to the five agents. So now, it’s up to ex-tibak Anton, clueless rich girl Berni, the slutty Toni, the probinsyanong Brichi, and the overly religious Elsa to do whatever it takes to keep their jobs. Whatever it takes.
Hello Philippines is viciously funny and holds nothing sacred as it skewers the “call center lifestyle”, a life cycle born out of fast money and desperation, shifting body clocks, and too much coffee, beer, and cigarettes. It attempts to put into perspective all the sacrifices one makes to stay in such an environment, albeit in an entertaining manner.
Titser's Act
Set in a humble urban precinct poll a day before the 2010 national polls, the play centers around three public school teachers and their colorful commentaries on the issues lurking around the election.
From semi-electronic polls to mass killings, they dish out their conflicting remarks on each controversies served in a plate of wit and sarcasm. Teacher’s Act takes us to the shoes of the one person who has seen all the action and (mis)actions during elections – the teachers.
HELLO PHILIPPINES! will play back to back with TITSER'S ACT.
