LITTLE Boy Productions and Sacred Heart School Hijas de Jesus Alumnae Association proudly present the Cebu debut of Tuesday with Morrie, a stage adaptation of the best-selling novel of the same title.
It will be directed by Repertory Philippines’ artistic director Baby Bar-redo.
Tuesday with Morrie is based on Mitch Albom’s best-selling book that has touched millions of lives worldwide with its powerful story of the friendship and life lessons shared between a teacher (Morrie Schwartz) and a student (Mitch Albom).
The New York Daily News describes the play as “a touching, life-affirming, deeply emotional drama with a generous dose of humor.”
It is a heart-warming play that perfectly combines comedy with dramatic moments, and is a gentle reminder of how great teachers can shape and change our lives forever.
