The usual acting showdown and direction of mini play by the Stagers members still happen, we manage to witness one whole afternoon screening 6 productions in their mini-studio in Balic-Balic, in Sampaloc Manila, from newbie actors to veteran stagers, we are all delighted to watch how they execute all those plays mostly written by Tanada himself.
