The Pinoys gather in Manang’s house and reminisce about their life back home in the Philippines and the stories of the families they left behind. The shared experiences and re-creation of Filipino life from varied perspectives of these Pinoys evolve to become their armor against the difficulties and challenges of living in a country not their own and the constant pain of loneliness. Dr. Anton Juan has directed this play in Manila, Athens, London, Geneva, Paris, Chicago, and now in Toronto. Bayan Bayanan sa Toronto is brought to you by, TFC, iKubo Media, Event Executives, FilTown, JDL School of Performing Arts, Mother Publishing and Studio Six Productions.
