For the first time ever, Jasmine Curtis-Smith and Royce Cabrera are sharing the stage in the theater adaptation of the 2007 Cinemalaya hit Endo. Presented by Ticket2Me in partnership with PETA Plus, the much-awaited stage adaptation runs from April 10 to May 10 at the Philippine Educational Theater Association (PETA) Theater Center, where audiences will finally get to experience the compelling story of Endo live on stage, with the new pairing of Jasmine and Royce bringing fresh energy and intimate depth to the beloved characters.
Almost two decades ago, Endo the movie captured hearts in the independent film scene, winning awards like the Special Jury Prize, the Gawad Urian Award for Best Screenplay, and the TANGLAW Award for Best Picture for its honest portrayal of ordinary Filipinos navigating love while living paycheck to paycheck under the uncertainty of contractual work.
This April, the critically acclaimed story comes alive once again through its stage adaptation, directed by Melvin Lee and written for the stage by Liza Magtoto, bringing the characters and their struggles to life in a fresh, personal way that allows audiences to connect with the story all over again.
Jasmine stars as Tanya, a spirited dreamer who wants more out of her life. Royce plays Leo, a young man caught in a cycle of temporary jobs and fleeting relationships, searching for stability in love and life. Meanwhile, a figure from Leo’s past, Candy (portrayed by Kate Alejandrino) complicates the path Leo and Tanya must navigate.
Supporting the leads as alternates are Rissey Reyes‑Robinson as Tanya, Esteban Mara as Leo, and Iana Bernardez as Candy – ready to bring the same intensity and heart to every performance.
This stage adaptation of Endo is set to bring heightened tension and raw romantic emotion to the story of Tanya and Leo. Every personal moment, choice, and hesitation draws the audience in, leaving them hooked to a story that is impossible to forget.
Experience Endo live on stage from April 10 to May 10 at the PETA Theater Center. Tickets are available through Ticket2Me, with prices ranging from ₱1,600 to ₱2,700. Secure your tickets now at ticket2me.net and follow Ticket2Me on Facebook and Instagram for more information.
