𝙉𝙖𝙣𝙖 𝙍𝙤𝙨𝙖, which graced the hallowed stage of Wilfrido Ma. Guerrero Theater in 2019 and 2020, is based on the life of Maria Rosa Luna Henson, the first Filipino Comfort Woman to make her story public. The story covers her childhood in Pampanga, being the illegitimate child of a sugar magnate; her experiences during the early years of the Second World War, to her capture and eventually becoming a comfort woman; and the series of events that leads to her decision to come out with her story fifty years later.
Ang Huling Lagda ni Apolinario Mabini
Streaming on 5 May 2022 (Thurs), 7:45 PM
A live, interactive talkback will follow shortly after the premiere. The talkback will be streamed below.
Apart from chronicling the last days of his exile in Guam and exploring the conditions which spurred him to return to his homeland, Ang Huling Lagda ni Apolinario Mabini proves to still be relevant 8 years after its premiere at the Wilfrido Ma. Guerrero Theater (WMGT) in 2014. In time for the upcoming Philippine elections on 9 May 2022, Ang Huling Lagda ni Apolinario Mabini’s ultimate message of the importance of one’s service to the country serves as a timely reminder to the Filipino electorate that the narrative of the country in the next years lies in their votes.
Ang Huling Lagda ni Apolinario Mabini will be premiered on 5 May 2022 on the UP Department of Speech Communication and Theatre Arts Facebook Page and on the DSCTA UP Diliman YouTube Channel followed by a talkback with Floy Quintos (Librettist), Krina Cayabyab (Composer), and Prof. Dexter M. Santos (Director) to be moderated by Asst. Prof. Marvin Ray C. Olaes.
