Job Pagsibigan’s THE PALANCA IN MY MIND
(directed by Roobak Valle featuring Wenah Nagales,
Clottie Lucero, Eric Cruz & the Tanghalang Pilipino
Actorsà Company)
See how far Dory, a call center agent, can go to have
a crack at the countryÃs premier literary competition.
Up to the challenge, albeit mentally-challenged
herself, one can catch a glimpse of what goes on in
the minds of aspiring winners, even the most
delusional of them.
Debbie Tan’s DRAGONÃS BREATH
(directed by J. Victor Villareal featuring Marj
Lorico)
The prospect of losing oneÃs sight is daunting but
meeting someone who has already lost it keeps life in
perspective. DragonÃs breath is a dream where inner
fantasy is hope, where oriental myth merges with
reality.
Niel de Mesa’s PAG-UWI ëPAG UNDAS
(directed by Tuxqs Rutaquio feat. Chromewell Cosio &
Carmela Magtuto)
Undas: Dalawang taong naghihintay sa isang dinumog na
sementeryo. Isang babaeng mainipin at isang lalaking
masigasig. Ano nga ba ang saysay ng buhay kung lagi
na lang tayong pinaghihintay ng ating mga mahal sa
buhay? E, ano nga ba ang hinihintay natin? Baka mas
mabuting umuwi na lang. Pero sayang naman ang
paghihintay kung mauuwi lang sa uwian.
VI. Naked Truths
July 16, 2006 (Sunday) 3 & 8 PM
Liza Magtoto’s HUBAD
(directed by Denisa Reyes featuring Nonie Buencamino &
Irma Adlawan)
A middle-aged couple is discontented with their
married life, so they start to engage in sex games.
As they play roles and act out their fantasies as
student-teacher, driver-master and even cross
dressing, the woman realizes that she just wants to be
accepted as she is.
Argel Tuason’s PALABAS / EXIT
(directed by Rolando Inocencio featuring Noel Escondo
& Jejie Esguerra)
Sa sinehan, hinihintay ni Borji ang isang misteryosong
lalaking nakaulayaw niya nuong nakaraang buwan, si
Rey. Si Rey ay isang sakristang umibig sa isang pari,
bagay na di nakaligtas sa mga mapang-usyosong mata ng
mga taga-simbahan. Sa pag-alis sa simbahan, anong mga
sagabal ang bumabalakid sa muling pagtatagpo nina Rey
at Borji?
Dennis Teodosio’s PAYB-SIKS
(directed by Phil Noble featuring Gerard Pizzaras &
Arnold Reyes)
Kapag may umuutang, sino ba ang mas may power, ëyung
nangungutang o ëyung inuutangan? A seduction play
about the politics of money and sexual dominance.
