Ogie Juliano Mass and Necrological Service Highlights

April 13, 2007 | By TheBachelorGirl In Acting Concerns |

The Trails of Flower Petals – Trails of flower petals lined the path from the AS steps all the way to the Wilfrido Ma. Guerrero Theater on 11 April 2007 as theatre, TV, and film people as well as family members trouped to the Mass and Necrological Service for Rogelio “Ogie” Juliano Jr.

Ogie Juliano Takes Center Stage During Mass – Ogie’s cremated remains were transferred from the chapel of Loyola Memorial Park in Marikina to rightfully take center stage at the Wilfrido Ma. Guerrero Theater during the Eucharistic Celebration.

Dulaang UP Actors Perform We ’R Family – While Ogie Juliano takes the best seat in the house, the Pointer Sisters’ classic We ’R Family song was performed as the opening number by the Dulaang UP actors to commence Ogie’s Necrological Service entitled Curtain Call.

Dulaang UP Actors Perform from Dreamgirls – A trio of Dulaang UP female actors enthusiastically belted out a song from the Broadway and movie hit Dreamgirls. Cynthia and Lionel Juico also performed a musical number from Dalagang Bukid.

Dulaang UP Actors Eugene Domingo and Joey Ting – Eugene and Joey delighted the house with a comic depiction of infamous Ogie lines, phrases and actions such as the faux pinching of the “singit” or saying, “That costume is so good you don’t deserve it.”

Soxy Topacio of PETA – Ogie has worked with all the major theatre companies in the Philippines including the renowned PETA. Soxy Topacio of PETA recounted his experiences with Ogie as a set designer and actor.

Behn Cervantes – Famous Behn Cervantes assured the audience members that Ogie Juliano is preparing heaven for the rest of us to be more “dramatic, colorful and theatrical with an unlimited budget.”

   I know this may be too late but for anyone who is interested, we have posted videos of Ogie’s necrological service on youtube.com. I’m not sure how to post links here but just search “Ogie Juliano” and the videos will come up.

   Thank you all for remembering and celebrating my beloved brother’s life!

   Thank you so much for featuring Sir Ogie. Friends called me the day he died and then I called sir Anton and he was already crying when he answered. I felt alone here in greece and not being there to say goodbye. He was a good teacher. We miss him.

   Hi Louise. You’re welcome. It was the thought that there are lots of people like you who wanted to be there but couldn’t make it that made it imperative for me to do this post. Take care….

   Thank you for expressing our loss of a beloved artist, cousin and friend through a medium he truly understands and appreciates, the theater arts. I can see him smiling happily down from Heaven with his mom, knowing fully well his life on Earth was truly worth the sacrifice he gave to see his dreams and those of his friends’ dreams come true. He is, by all honesty, our Ogie. Saluds to all of his friends who made us proud to have him as our cousin.
