In the middle of this COVID-19 pandemic and the uncertainty of theaters resuming their presentations this year, Teatro ni Juan , Marikina City’s premiere community theater, is dauntlessly launching “B
akunawa Rising.”
“Theater has always been a counteractant to isolation,” Mikko Angeles, the musical’s director, told ABS-CBN News. “Teatro ni Juan would like to stay true to its mission of bringing theater, or even part of it, closer to the masses and the youth, especially in these trying times.” “Some may see it as a small gesture of providing digital content,” Angeles explained. “But for TNJ, which is a self-sustaining, non-profit organization, it is a huge leap of advancement. By migrating from the stage to the screen, it is a dream for any community theater to be able to pull that off.
The second on October 31 will be an interactive storytelling, with various audio and visual prompts designed to forge a character’s path through dialogues and decision-making. The finale will be on November 30 . All episodes will reveal a demo song from the musical respectively.The musical and artistic team of “Bakunawa Rising” includes Mika Caranza and Carlo Gianan and Mikko Angeles . Over the pandemic, the trio continuously propels to develop the material along with the team of dramaturgs .
“Even before the release of iWant’s ‘The Last Manilaners,’ the production team came to see the ‘Ang Pagsalubong sa Apatnapu’,” Angeles said. “The producers of ‘Quezon’s Game,’ as the movie shares the same universe as ‘Apatnapu,’ went as well, even calling the show ‘a sibling’ to the movie.”
