Phl wins Children's Choice Award in Prague
MANILA, Philippines - The Philippines, Turkey and the Czech Republic were adjudged Children’s Choice awardees at the Veletrizni Palace, site of this year’s Prague Quadrennial of Performance Space and Design.
National curator Rolando de Leon accepted the Rainbow Cormorant award hand-crafted by Czech schoolchildren. Over 65 national pavilions and 76 student booths took part in this year’s event, considered the Olympiad of Theater Design.
Students, teachers, and family groups who visited both the Philippine national pavilion and the student booth put together by De La Salle University’s Harlequin Theater Guild were one in praising the quaint craftsmanship of De Leon’s bamboo house, which highlighted costumes, photographs, Angono’s higantes, Abel Iloko fabric, Darangen dolls Mindanao and Bohol’s Teatro Abatan.
The DLSU-HTG student booth was anchored on the mystical balete tree, around which students and guests wore costumes from the Dinagyang, Ibon-Ebon, Calacatchara, Sosogon, and Uswag Surallah Lembuhong festivals.
