Megaworld Lifestyle Malls and Repertory Philippines have entered into a strategic partnership that will set the stage for the emergence of a dynamic new home for the country’s foremost theater company in Eastwood City, the entertainment capital of the Philippines.
This groundbreaking partnership, solidified through an official contract signing conducted yesterday, March 12, at the Eastwood Richmonde Hotel in Eastwood City, signifies a monumental stride forward for both entities. Led by Graham Coates, the First Vice President and Head of Megaworld Lifestyle Malls, and Mindy Perez-Rubio, the President of Repertory Philippines, this collaboration heralds a new era of cultural and entertainment enrichment in the heart of Metro Manila.
The brand-new theater will rise at the fourth floor of Eastwood Citywalk and has a total space spanning 1,400 square meters. It features a contemporary classic design and an expansive mezzanine and common area.
The main theater boasts a seating capacity of 500, providing an intimate yet spacious setting for patrons to enjoy the spectacular performances and theater productions that Repertory Philippines is renowned for.
The new performing space is set to open its doors in October 2024 with the inaugural show, “Jepoy and the Magic Circle”, a Repertory Philippines and Repertory Theater for Young Audiences original production that is sure to captivate audiences and set the stage for an exciting new chapter of the famed theater company.
“We are very honored to give Repertory Philippines its new home in Eastwood City through this landmark partnership. More than signifying our commitment to offering diverse cultural experiences to our valued patrons and communities, this new theater symbolizes our shared vision of creating a vibrant cultural hub that puts the spotlight on the world-class talents of Filipinos, fosters creativity and inspires the next generation of playwrights and theater performers,” shared Megaworld Lifestyle Malls head Graham Coates.
The arrival of Repertory Philippines is a big boost to Eastwood City as it further solidifies its status as a leading entertainment and lifestyle hub in the country, and a hotbed and thriving hub for up-and-coming Filipino artists and performers. The collaboration also aims to foster a thriving arts community, attracting artists and theater enthusiasts from across the metro.
The new location of Repertory Philippines, meanwhile, gives theater-goers access to Eastwood City’s diverse array of global brands, retail stores, chef-driven restaurants and new immersive experiences for all ages.
Ticket prices and show schedule will be announced soon through Repertory Philippines’ social media accounts and website.
