THE PHILIPPINES
The first Asian production of Visiting Mr. Green took place in 2002. Performed in English, it starred Miguel Faustmann as Mr. Green (a triumph of makeup since he was only 47) and Michael Williams as Ross Gardiner. It was directed by theatre pioneer and founder of
Repertory Philippines, Zeneida Amador.
“Like other great plays, Visiting Mr. Green works because the issues raised and the emotional responses to them are universal. These things could and do happen everywhere.”
MICHAEL DAVID C. TAN – THE MANILA TIMES
“Old and young cross the bridge of distrust. They find in each other the family that they have lost. The respect and love that shine from the stage promise that they can work out the few loose ends left.”
