After dominating Philippine television for three decades, the country’s longest-running gag show Bubble Gang is ready to bring its comedy magic to an even bigger stage. This October, the iconic program will celebrate its 30th anniversary with a concert event designed to be as hilarious, outrageous, and memorable as the sketches that made it a household name since the ‘90s.

The announcement was revealed by comedy icon and creative force Michael V. during his contract renewal with GMA Network on August 18. Watch our intimate interview with the Kapuso Comedy Genius here:
