This Epic Fairytale Show Is 50% Off for Students — But Only for One Night!

Here’s one event you don’t want to miss—especially if you’re a student looking for something fun, cultural, and totally worth your weekend. Peter and the Wolf & Little Red Riding Hood is coming to The Theatre at Solaire from August 1 to 3, and for the Sunday, August 3, 7 PM show, students get a massive 50% discount on tickets!

 

Now, what makes this show so special? For the first time in Philippine performing arts history, three iconic institutions—Ballet Philippines, Repertory Philippines, and the Manila Symphony Orchestra—are joining forces on one stage. That’s dance, theater, and live orchestral music all in one magical performance. It’s not every day you get to experience that kind of creative power in a single night.

The show features Peter and the Wolf, the beloved musical tale by Russian composer Sergei Prokofiev. It’s such a fun and clever piece where every character is represented by a different instrument. The bird? A flute. The duck? An oboe. The cat is a clarinet, and so on. It’s like storytelling through sound, and when combined with visuals and movement, it becomes something truly unforgettable.

Paired with that is Little Red Riding Hood, told through ballet, with music by Camille Saint-Saëns and Edvard Grieg. It’s a fresh take on the classic fairytale, reimagined to highlight courage, curiosity, and the magic of kindness. Plus, it’s super kid-friendly—so yes, bring your siblings, cousins, even your lola if she’s into fairytales with a twist.

The production runs for just five shows from August 1 to 3, with matinees and evening performances. But if you're aiming for a steal, August 3 at 7 PM is the sweet spot for students. Just head to TicketWorld and use the promo code PETERAUG37PMSTUDENT50 to slash your ticket price in half. Don’t forget to bring your school ID on the day of the show, or they might not let you in on the deal. Here's the link to book: Ticketworld.

So if you're into music, theater, ballet, or just looking for something different to do, this show is the perfect way to spend your Sunday night.

Catch it while you can. Trust me, you’ll want to say you were there when three of the country’s finest came together for one unforgettable performance.
