Saturday matinee on Oct
21st at 2pm and our

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.

present MUMU, an
otherwise
experience
Oct
27 - Nov
18
We
all have ghosts.
MUMU
debuts at Bindlestiff
Studio, resurrecting the
rituals of evocation and
exploring the textures of
fear. A beautiful
multi-sensory, art-theater
experience, MUMU is a
celebration of death and a
meditation of our darker
selves, creating new
rituals and
stories.
It’s
1977 in San Francisco, and
a young Filipino immigrant
follows his poetry into
the shadows. Through an
ominous soundscape and
immersive space, this
exploration of our unknown
darkness reveals an
intimate story of
connection, cultural
psyche, and death… this is
our inquiry of everything
that haunts us as a
people.
