The musical was produced after the success of Cayabyab's previous Rizal musical adaptation, El filibusterismo (1993).[3] Since its original production, Noli Me Tángere has been restaged multiple times, including a production in 2011 which was held to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Rizal's birth.[4][1][2][5]
