Philippine Educational Theater Association

Philippine Educational Theater Association (PETA) is a non-stock, non-profit and non-governmental theater
organization based in the Philippines. It is engaged in the development of society and people, enriching theater
forms and techniques that express local, national, and universal themes.

Establishment
PETA was established in 1967 by Cecile Guidote-Alvarez. It was first located at Dulaang Rajah Soliman in Fort
Santiago, Intramuros Manila. In 2005, PETA moved to its new location - the PETA Theater Center with its
current address at #5 Sunnyside Drive, New Manila, Quezon City.

Purpose
PETA has nurtured hundreds of artists who later on shared their talents and expertise in theater, television,
radio, in print and education. It continues to pursue its vision to enrich and empower the society and people
with each gesture, word, image, sound, expression and creative learning experience.
