Works of celebrated Dumaguete writer, playwright to be staged at Silliman

SunStar Publishing Inc.

When Dumaguete writer Bobby Flores Villasis passed on last May 2, he left behind a great array of literary works and books that defined a life dedicated to creative writing.

Of particular interest, however, are his plays, for which he won an impressive number of Palanca Awards; seven in all, which include Vigil , Demigod , Fiesta , Salcedo , Brisbane , Eidolon , and Caves . They are a mix of historical and domestic dramas, but all of them invariably dramatize the secret lives and public sorrows of privileged Oriental Negrense families. These plays were acclaimed in their time, but they have never been staged, even during Villasis’ lifetime.
