After intriguing audiences with their season teasers, Mad Child Productions finally reveals the first production in their lineup this year with a staged reading of Emmanuelle Mattana’s Trophy Boys to be directed by Jillian Ita-as. Trophy Boys headlines the lineup for Mad Child’s Season Three, A.K.A. Our Coming of Age.
Trophy Boys is a high-energy satirical play written by Emmanuelle Mattana that follows an elite, all-boys high school debate team tasked with arguing that "feminism has failed women." The play delves into the topics of toxic masculinity, queer desire, and the performativity of gender.
Jillian Ita-as leads the production with a stellar cast of four: Dippy Arceo (Elecktra 2025, Bar Boys 2025), Zoë de Ocampo (Patintero sa Ayala Avenue 2025, Quomodo Desolata Es? 2026), Yani Lopez (Sa Babaeng Lahat 2025, Bagets the Musical 2026), and Leanne Mamonong (The Band’s Visit 2020).
Joining Ita-as are Perine Nyssa Bianzon as Technical Director and Lighting Designer, Julia Vaila as Sound Designer, and AJ Binay as Graphic Designer.
Trophy Boys will have its limited one-weekend run in 5F Mirror Theater Studios, SJG Centre, Makati, with showdates being April 10 (8PM), April 11 (8PM), and April 12 (2PM, 5PM, and 8PM).
