The Philippine Educational Theater Association (PETA) is set to introduce the most daring chapter yet in the iconic “Ang Babae Sa Septic Tank” franchise. After producing two blockbuster films and a hit series, the well-loved universe is making a major leap from screen to stage as it debuts its first live theatrical production.
Running from June 19 to August 16, 2026 at the PETA Theater Center, “Ang Babae Sa Septic Tank 4: Oh Sh*t! It’s Live sa Cheter!” ushers in a new era for the franchise, with Eugene Domingo returning as herself in this stage adaptation.
This fourth installment brings the franchise’s signature satire into an entirely new medium, delivering a chaotic, razor-sharp, and hilariously unfiltered look into the world of Philippine theater-making. True to the spirit of Septic Tank, the production pulls audiences behind the curtain—only to dismantle it—revealing the ambition, ego, absurdity, and vibrant chaos that shape the industry today.
The show’s official synopsis reads:
PETA unveils its newest satire, a theatrical adaptation of “Ang Babae Sa Septic Tank,” as a chaotic, hilarious meta-comedy about ego, art, and the messy reality of making Philippine theater today. From macro to micro, from venue problems to ticket prices, from what the subject matter is to what’s on Broadway, from what we love to what we hate about theater, from the past, present, and future of our beloved art.
Returning to the role only she can play is the incomparable Eugene Domingo as herself, joined by everybody else in the theater world as themselves!
Serving as the franchise’s boldest evolution, this stage adaptation embraces PETA’s signature approach: entertainment paired with razor-sharp cultural commentary. Expect a riotous experience that reflects the chaos of real-life theater-making while preserving the company’s teeth—its commitment to socially relevant, politically aware, and artistically daring storytelling.
As the home of smash-hit originals like “Rak of Aegis,” “Walang Aray,” and the musical adaptation of “One More Chance,” PETA is poised to deliver a production that’s as groundbreaking as the films that inspired it. With the franchise’s original creators, Marlon Rivera and Chris Martinez, and to be directed by Maribel Legarda, this installment is set to become as iconic as its predecessors, only bigger, bolder, and even more meta.
“Ang Babae Sa Septic Tank 4” is co‑presented by Metrobank, PETA’s official bank partner for 2026. Metrobank credit cardholders will have first access to tickets during a special presale when tickets launch in the first quarter of 2026.
