Mark your calendars and prepare for a frightening theatrical show as TAXI Theater (Theater. Applied. Experiential. Immersive) and De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde welcome Halloween with the production of Mulagat.

The story centers on Nico, a graduating architecture student, who wakes up in the middle of the night and investigates the strange sounds emanating from the hallway outside his condo unit. He stumbles upon a young girl searching for her brother. 

Mulagat follows the story of an architecture student awoken by strange sounds outside his condo unit

The tale unfolds in a series of eerie encounters that spiral down uncontrollably, escalating into a spine-chilling revelation.

A multi-sensorial horror theatrical play written and directed by Eric Villanueva Dela Cruz, it integrates the use of Theater-in-the-Dark style in some portions of the play. It is designed to plunge the audience in complete darkness to stimulate the other senses and provide an alternative to the visual bias of watching a play.

The maiden production of TAXI Theater will be presented in cooperation with the Arts Management Program under the Culture and Arts Studies cluster of the college’s School of Design and Arts (SDA).
