There can be miracles, when you believe. But in one of the darkest stories ever told in the pages of Philippine Literature, the novel of our National Hero- (Dr. Jose Rizal), seemed not to believe in it. In this last novel he wrote- EL FILIBUSTERISMO, the main lead character died without seeing the dawn of a new Philippines. But somewhere along the way, you would feel that his lingering soul saved all the Filipinos from the depths of a living hell- through his LEGACY and embraced upon by his love.
Thanks God, GANTIMPALA THEATER FOUNDATION never failed to present to many students and audiences of theirs the Theatrical Version of EL FILIBUSTERISMO. Adapted from the novel, this stage presentation is truly worth-seeing, breath-taking and 'mesmeringzingly' fantastic. Directed by Jose Jeffrey Camanag and with Roeder Camanag playing the role of Simoun- the partnership of this two blood brothers was one to reckon for. An unforgettable tandem as director-actor.
With their last schedules of performances out to be shown at the GSIS Theater by the second or third week of December, let's have one more lingering look at EL FILIBUSTERISMO, the play. Captured on the photographic lens of social media influencer- Mr. Dennis T. Sebastian, you would really feel the very sophisticated texture of this play.
And definitely, just like the song "When You Believe" which will have its comeback via The Prince of Egypt, The Musical Play out to be performed on the year 2020 at West End in New York- the local play EL FILIBUSTERISMO will still believe in the power of love....
And,
ETERNITY.
