The Virgin Labfest 7 (untried, untested, unpublished and unstaged), is a festival of new plays by emerging and well-known playwrights, directors and actors. This annual event is a joint venture of CCP, Tanghalang Pilipino and the Writers’ Bloc, Inc. in cooperation with the National Commission for Culture and the Arts.
