[Title] => Of heaven and hell
[Summary] => Himala: The Musical is Tanghalang Pilipino’s pre-Yuletide offering, now on stage at Tanghalang Huseng Batute.
The libretto by Ricky Lee is based on his own screenplay for the acclaimed movie directed by the late Ishmael Bernal, National Artist for Cinema, and starring Nora Aunor as the barrio lass who claims to have been given the gift to heal the sick by the Virgin Mary. The film might have been inspired by a Mexican production about a young woman in a remote village who acquires the power to heal after a heavenly visitation.
