IV. LEARNING PHASES AND LEARNING ACTIVITIES


I. Introduction (Time Frame: Day 1)

Theater is the one major art form that brings together all the other art forms—from painting and sculpture to installation art,
to music, to dance, to literature, even to computer arts—in a single production. A story is acted out on stage (or other
performance area) by actors portraying the characters, bringing them to life and developing the plot through dialogue
and actions, and sometimes through song and/or dance.
The Philippines has a rich and thriving theater industry that you may be interested to venture into in the future.
Productions range from original plays with Philippine themes and settings, to renowned theater classics from past centuries
to contemporary musicals from Broadway orLondon’s West End. Below is an overview of some of the more prominent
theater and performing groups in the country and their major productions.

PETA and Tanghalang Pilipino

With the American presence in the Philippines for the first half of the 20th century,
it was inevitable that many U.S. and European theater forms and scripts found
their way here. Among them were the classics, such as the plays of William
Shakespeare, as well as the works of great American playwrights. At the same
time, local theater groups staged original Philippine zarzuelas which were plays
performed in song, like the European opera.
In the past few decades, modern theater groups have continued to express
the distinctly Philippine interpretation of both originally written plays as well as
adaptations of foreign works translated into Filipino. At the forefront of these are
the Philippine Educational Theater Association (PETA), founded in 1967 by Cecile
Guidote-Alvarez, and Tanghalang Pilipino, the resident theater company of the
Cultural Center of the Philippines, founded in 1987. The productions of these
groups span the range from daring new presentations of classical works, to the
spectacle of Philippine myths and legends, to commentaries on current social
and political issues.
Meanwhile, other Philippine theater groups are also staging original and adapted plays and musical productions,
primarily in English. Best known among these are Repertory Philippines, Trumpets, and New Voice Company. More recently,
Theater Down South has been added to their roster. And championing the cause of the more classical form of musical
performances is the Philippine Opera Company.

Repertory Philippines

In 1967, theater director Zenaida Amador fulfilled her dream of bringing


the best of Broadwayand London’s West End to Filipino audiences. Together
with actress Baby Barredo, Amador established Repertory Philippines, a
company that not only staged English-language plays and musicals year-
round but trained actors and actresses as well. The company continues with
this vision to this day.
Multi-awarded theater actress and singer, Lea Salonga, in fact, began her career as a child leadin productions of
Repertory Philippines. From there, she went on to become an international stage superstar in the lead role of Kim in Miss
Saigon—putting the Philippines on the world map in terms of theater talent. Also, among Repertory’s many notable
achievements was the 1993 staging of the international hit musical Les Miserables in Manila with an all-Filipino cast and
production team. In its 2009 season, Repertory added a Filipino classic in English to its productions—A Portrait of the Artist as
Filipino, by National Artist Nick Joaquin. To date, it continues to offer a mix of productions ranging from literary classics to
contemporary satires, comedies, and musicals.
IV. LEARNING PHASES AND LEARNING ACTIVITIES

Trumpets

In the 1990s, the Philippine theater group Trumpets also began mounting grand
productions of originally written musicals with a slant towards good values for
children and the whole family. Among their plays have been Joseph the Dreamer;
First Name; The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe; Little Mermaid; Honk; N.O.A.H.;
and The Bluebird of Happiness. The intention of Trumpets is to provide wholesome
theater experiences for Filipino youth while also building up the Philippine theater-
going public.

New Voice Company


Also making its own distinct contribution to the Philippine theater scene is New
Voice Company, established in 1994 by Monique Wilson—also a Repertory Philippines’
protégée who went on to star on the international stage. New Voice has earned a
reputation for staging thought-provoking productions on daring and deep topics.

Philippine Opera Company


The Philippine Opera Company (POC) was founded in 1999 by a group of dedicated
classically trained singers, led by soprano Karla Gutierrez as artistic directress. The POC
seeks to develop performers as well as audiences for classical music performances, both
foreign and Filipino.

Theater Down South


In 2007, Theater Down South was founded, with Philippine theater
mainstay Michael Williams as artistic director. The vision of the company is
to widen the reach of stage productions beyond the traditional centers within
Metro Manila, and therefore develop a broader audience base.
