The Sandbox Collective unveils full cast for a staged reading of "People, Places, and Things"

Get to know the cast in Duncan Macmillan's acclaimed play about addiction, recovery, and the search for one’s truth and identity.

The Sandbox Collective returns with another production, this time a staged reading, bringing Duncan Macmillan's celebrated play PEOPLE, PLACES, AND THINGS to Philippine audiences for a strictly limited engagement this August.

Directed by Sab Jose, the production follows Emma — a successful actress whose carefully constructed life unravels as she enters a rehabilitation center and confronts addiction, memory, and the difficult process of recovery. Alternating in the lead role are acclaimed actresses Bela Padilla and Gabby Padilla.

Bela Padilla makes her theatrical debut in this year’s staged reading of People, Places, and Things. She is a Filipino actress, host, singer, writer, and director. She is best known for her roles in television dramas on GMA and ABS-CBN, as well as critically acclaimed films such as 100 Tula Para Kay Stella and Meet Me in St. Gallen.
