Gantimpala stages Rolando Tinio's 'A Life in the Slums'

-

Gantimpala Theater closes its 31st Season with A Life in the Slums, written by Rolando S. Tinio, National Artist for Theater, which was awarded first prize, in the English division of the 1975 Don Carlos Palanca Memorial Awards.

Gantimpala Theater artistic director Tony Espejo says, “(The play) is very funny; biting at some points, and will definitely open the eyes of people on the ridiculousness and hypocrisy of the rich and their ambivalent attitude towards the poor.”

Helping Espejo create the impoverished world of Millie and Annie are Andy Villareal (lights designer); Marianne Sedotes (set designer); Albert Figueras (costume designer); Joey de Guzman (musical composer); Jorge Cabullo (production manager) and Michael King Urieta (stage manager).

A Life in the Slums is fully supported by the National Parks Development Committee.

Performances are on Dec. 5 and 6, (10 a.m./2 p.m.), at the AFP Theater, in Quezon City, Dec. 12 to 14, (10 a.m./2 p.m.) SM Southmall in Las Piñas City.
