After its successful three-week run for its 19th edition, with sold out shows and high turnouts of audiences, the Virgin Labfest marches on to its milestone season in 2025, with 12 new plays culled from over 200 submissions.

The festival will return in 2025, weaving a new tapestry of stories and experiences that can be seen through thought-provoking performances. The spotlight on Filipino playwrights will continue -- giving them a venue to transform their literary works from pages to stages.
