Individuality, friendship, relationship, and love, this November at The Negros Museum.


The Performance Laboratory, Inc., is a community theater based in Bacolod City that is dedicated to provide regional artists a venue for growth and development, as well as encourage theatre appreciation. This November 2020, PerfLab proudly presents Six Feet Apheart. This diverse material tackles love, education, mental awareness, employment, technology, and so much more.

Six Feet Apheart is a production of The Performance Laboratory with Artistic Director, Tanya P. Lopez and members, Noel A. Pahayupan and Roger P. Venzal in collaboration with esteemed playwright and director, Dr. Anton Juan, a Senior Full Professor at the University of Notre Dame du Lac. The project consists of four plays entitled Triptych, Cactus, Tangerine, and The Day I Died. The plays depict stories about individuality, friendship, relationship, and love of the characters and how each character copes with the challenges, especially during COVID-19.

Conceptualized by a strong ensemble, Six Feet Apheart sensibly captures reality and a slice of life of each individual to which audiences can relate, connect, and identify with. Keeping our commitment to the community of artists, the project aims to discuss relevant issues and show that despite the current situation, theatre is feasible and very much alive.

Six Feet Apheart will be held at The Negros Museum through staged readings every Wednesday (November 11, 18, 25, and December 2, 2020) at 5:30PM. Due to IATF health and safety protocols, audience count is limited to a maximum of 12 people. For admission and seat reservations, please send a message to Facebook Page: The Performance Laboratory, Inc., or contact 0945-966-8095.

This is PerfLab’s initiative for Artist Development and Sustainability, Audience Awareness, and Artistic Collaboration and Exchange. Feedback will surely help in developing arts, theatre, and culture especially in the region.
