A new play by Gaven D. Trinidad
Directed by Natsu Onoda Power
Dramaturgy & Tour Direction by Michelle M. Aguillon
Music direction by Jeffrey Song a CHUANG Stage & Company One Theatre co-production

While his mother struggles to earn money in New York City and his father waits alone in Manila for their daily phone calls, six-year-old Eddie learns English from his imaginary friend. Between the War on Drugs in the Philippines and the anti-immigrant movement in the United States threatening their humanity, will this undocumented family be able to pursue their dreams and address unspoken truths? A musical and multilingual journey of childlike wonder, Gaven D. Trinidad’s Learning How to Read by Moonlight is equal parts playful, poignant, and hella Pinoy.

Learning How to Read by Moonlight is spoken in English and Tagalog with subtitles.
