Epy Quizon, Romnick Sarmenta, Elijah Canlas Return for 'About Us But Not About Us' Rerun

Following a successful run in February, the stage adaptation of Jun Robles Lana's About Us But Not About Us is returning in October, with a star-studded cast, including Romnick Sarmenta, Elijah Canlas, Epy Quizon, Andoy Ranay, Kobie Brown, Marlon Rivera, Geraldine Villamil, Jack Denzel, and director Tuxqs Rutaquio himself now performing onstage.

If the title sounds familiar, that's because its original film version premiered in the inaugural edition of the Metro Manila Summer Film Festival, where it bagged 10 awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Screenplay. The psychological drama film, written, co-produced, and directed by Jun Robles Lana, follows Eric (Sarmenta) and his student, Lancelot (Canlas), conversing over a meal at a restaurant, revealing secrets.

Sarmenta and Canlas, who played Eric and Lancelot, respectively, are reprising their roles.

Quizon and Ranay are also back from the original stage run as Marcus, with Brown alternating for the role of Lancelot and Rutaquio alternating for the role of Eric.

About Us But Not About Us runs from October 2 to 25, 2026, at the Power Mac Center Spotlight Blackbox Theater, Circuit Makati. Tickets, priced from P2,800 to P3,920, are available through Ticket2Me.
