SOMA
Pilipinas Perfect Setting for
World Premiere of WELGA, Oct
5-21
Bindlestiff
Studio - located in the
heart of SOMA Pilipinas -
serves as the perfect
venue for the world
premiere of Conrad
Panganiban’s Welga,
a Filipino American
coming-of-age story of a
high school teen, Johnny
Montalban, whose dreams of
becoming a famous musician
clash with his
mother's dream of him
first earning his diploma.
Set in San Francisco's
SoMA Neighborhood, the
play explores family
conflict against the
backdrop of today's
educational system,
ongoing community
pressures, and the legacy
of Filipinos in the farm
labor movement that
sparked the 1965 Delano
Grape
Strike.
