The Philippine Educational Theater Association (PETA) is proud to announce that the Official Cast Recording of the hit musical Walang Aray, is now available for streaming on Spotify. This monumental release has been expertly crafted in partnership with one of the country’s premier full-service audio production houses, Soundesign Manila.
Rody Vera’s Walang Aray is a contemporary adaptation of Severino Reyes’ classic zarzuela Walang Sugat, returning with sharper satire, deeper emotional stakes, and bold new interpretations. Blending humor, romance, and political commentary, Walang Aray continues to resonate with audiences as it explores the intersection of love and resistance. As the flagship production of PETA’s 58th season, themed Love and Power, this restaging features a more comedic, more subversive, and bolder and biting Walang Aray while retaining its heartwarming core.
The cast recording’s release allows Pinoy theater fans to relive the show’s infectious musical catalog any time, anywhere. The original cast recording will feature popular tracks composed by award-winning composer and musical director Vince Lim, such as “Pangako 'Yan,” “Luv U 4 Ever,” “Tipo Kong Lalaki,” “Walang Aray Finale,” “Huwag Mo Akong Saktan,” “Front Act,” and a newly released song, “Tumindig at Lumaban” mashed up with the rousing Act 1 ender, “Bayan Ko.”
Dementia affects over 57 million people worldwide, with nearly 10 million new cases each year. This is the seventh leading cause of death and a major driver of disability among older adults. Alzheimer’s disease, the most common form of dementia, accounts for 60 to 70% of these cases.
In the Philippines, the burden extends beyond patients to entire families, as care remains largely home-based due to limited formal services. This is especially challenging for women, who not only face higher rates of disability and mortality, but also shoulder most caregiving duties.
A proposed measure in the House of Representatives — the Philippine Dementia and Alzheimer Care Policy (House Bill No. 185) — seeks to change this by establishing a national program for early detection, treatment, and support for patients and caregivers. As the bill advances in Congress and World Alzheimer’s Day approaches this September, LAC Philippines highlights the urgent need for accessible brain health solutions that help protect cognitive function and preserve quality of life.
