BUWAN AT BARIL

-

Ateneo-ENTABLADO (ENterteynment para sa TAo, Bayan, LAnsangan at DiyOs) opens its 26th Repertory Season with the staging of Chris Millado’s Buwan at Baril, a CCP award winning piece at the Rizal Mini Theater from August 16 until September 1, 2007.

As an answer to the nation’s call for unity in diversity, Chris Millado’s Buwan at Baril portrays the lives of Filipinos from the different sectors of society.

The play features the lives of eight Filipino citizens: the middle aged Manggagawa (laborer) and his Magsasaka (farmer) brother, both fighting for their rights at the Martsa ng Bayan (People’s March); a Priest and a Babaeng Itawis (a member of the Ibanag tribe) brought together by fate, trying to escape the harsh reality of the past; an Asawa (wife), who has to pretend that she’s a cousin of her husband just so she could fetch his remains; a middle class Socialite who is divided by her political beliefs and her social status; a former subversive who’s now a part of the Police and a Student Activist who tries to get his way out of the police station but is surprised to see that his interrogator was once a man of his kind.

Director Allan Forte, apprentice and assistant director of multi-awarded film director Marilou Diaz-Abaya, takes this EDSA People Power masterpiece into the present. Studded with actors and actresses from ENTABLADO and the Ateneo Community, Buwan at Baril promises its mature audience a different look on social involvement and awareness. Buwan at Baril will also bring back it’s audience to the Marcos Era, as it showcases the arsenal of Philippine Protest Theater.

From August 16 until September 1, Buwan at Baril will run every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday at 7 pm, with a 3 pm matinee show every Saturday. For inquiries and reservations, please call or text 0918.2494543 (Kalil Almonte), 426-6001 local 5421 (Entablado Room) or 5121 (Rizal Mini Theater) or email the company at ateneoentablado@yahoo.com.
