"Kath is an amazing collaborator, director, and educator.
When you mention Kath, the first thing that comes into my mind is that she is a good listener. She listens to understand, she listens to make things work, and she listens beyond what you are actually saying.
Working with Kath usually means a stress-free process because she is very calm and clear with what needs to be done. She is also a problem solver on her own, which helps the whole team move forward. At the same time, she makes sure to communicate with her peers and keep everyone involved in the process. That kind of collaboration makes working with her really enjoyable and productive."

"Katherine Nobleza is more than just a good friend to me—she is one of the most exceptional actresses I have ever had the privilege of working with. We first met during the Summer Workshop of the Philippine Stagers Foundation in 2015, and even then, there was already something special about her—a quiet fire, a passion that couldn’t be ignored.
As her director in the musical show LAMPARA, a story about Dr. Jose Rizal, I witnessed her transform not just as an actress, but as an artist. Katherine doesn’t simply perform—she feels, she lives, and she breathes every character she portrays. There were moments on stage where her emotions were so real, so raw, that they moved not just the audience, but all of us behind the scenes.
Her dedication, humility, and love for the craft are truly inspiring. She gives her whole heart to every role, and that kind of sincerity is rare. Watching her grow through the years has been a beautiful journey, and I am genuinely grateful to have shared the stage and creative space with her.
Katherine is a light in the theater—one that continues to shine brighter with time. And I have no doubt that she will keep touching lives through her art, just as she
has touched mine.

"An expertise on her craft. Her wealth of experience in the past enables her to be an effective theater director.
She inherently collaborates, works jointly with others to achieve shared goals, valuing diverse perspectives and contributes to a team oriented environment.
As a Trainor to the Tanghalang SLU, she blends technical acting processes with the development of the right attitude."
