Para sa Fil-Aus performers na sina Jordan Shea and Emma Feliciano, ang entablado ay di lamang sa pag-aarte. Ito rin ay tungkol sa malinaw na pagkukwento, paglalabas ng emosyon at pangangatawan sa mga taong di dati kasali sa script.

I've never fallen in love onstage. It's a big challenge for me to access that...I do admit to prepare for [the play], I watched some of the soap operas from the Philippines to see how they would do the little glances and everything.

Acting for me is like having an honest conversation with someone. At the heart of what I do is storytelling, and if I'm going to do something, I want it to be true.
