  • Bindlestiff Studio 185 6th Street San Francisco, CA 94103 (map)

Bindlestiff Studio present their main stage production of WELGA, written by Conrad A. Panganiban and directed by Aureen Almario (Artistic Director).

WELGA (‘strike’) is a Filipino American coming-of-age story of a high school teen who dreams of becoming a famous musician while his mother dreams of him graduating first. WELGA explores today's urban educational system and labor rights activism, touching upon the lesser-known legacies of the Filipino agricultural workers who led the 1965 Delano Grape Strike.
