Many forget that the award-winning international film director-writer-producer,
Direk Nijel de Mesa roots were in theater. One of his earliest works
that gained him acclaim was his play “Subtext”: that won the 1stPrize in the Don Carlos Palanca Awards for Literature, then turned into a full-length movie—which has now been turned into a quaint and intimate
musical. The script is a propelled by a theme on the harrows of
relationships and communication. Previous cast members boasts of a
stellar list of alums such as Victor Neri, Soliman Cruz, Lou Veloso, Harlene Bautista, Paolo Contis, Ciara Sotto, Boboy Garovillo, Nova Villa etc.
However, this current iteration is a musical version of the beloved play—perfect for lovers and/or single people this love month of February! Featuring brand new original songs written by Direk Nijel de Mesa himself—and with musical arrangements by Jopper Ril, the touring musical is poised to go global. The premiere cast of the musical version includes Shane Santos, Cherry Morena, Ced Recalde, Karl Tiuseco, Gaye Angeles, and Jiro Custodio from NET25’s Star Kada. The musical is produced under the “One Acts Theater” division of NDMstudios.
