‘3 Stars and a Sun,’ musical set to Francis M songs, is PETA’s next big hit

3 Stars and a Sun may be PETA’s next big hit after its long-running Rak of Aegis.

This dystopian musical wraps its socially relevant messages around the late Francis Magalona’s rap music.

The early reviews from critics’ night have described it as compelling and a must-watch.

And in one unforgettable scene, it also shocks the audience by breaking down the fourth wall.

That’s one way the play, set in a futuristic Philippines, drives home its themes of corruption, the class war, and environmental protection to a very modern audience.

Maxie Magalona, Francis’ daughter, posted on her Instagram: “Watching a play about important national issues concerning our country while hearing the actors perform Papa’s songs was just an amazing experience. I can’t wait to watch it again.”

3 Stars and a Sun runs from Feb 4 to Mar 26 at Peta Theater Center, 5 Eymard Drive, Quezon City. Tickets via Ticketworld.com.ph.
