For its 28th Theater Season (July 2014-March 2015), Tanghalang Pilipino (TP) adopts the theme DIS-EASE, and tackles the instability of the human personality which leads to psychological and social imperfections, illnesses, and tragedies. It must be made clear, though, that the productions for this coming season are not meant to further dishearten, discourage and cause any more feelings of hopelessness, than we already experienced and are still experiencing due to the recent series of man-made and natural calamities. TP's intentions remain to be the artistic interpretation and reflection of life's complex human and social realities, human pathos and sufferings where great virtues and wisdom are usually hidden and which surface only in opportune times precisely to suppress the vices, to heal wounds and restore the wounded body soul and spirit.

Dukit by Armando Lao

Plot: WALDO,  fated to become a celebrated sculptor in Betis, Pampanga, was born to a religious but empoverished parents. At an early age, Waldo suffered his first personal tragedy when his father abandoned the family for another woma. He suffered his second tragedy when his mother died. Waldo assumed the role of the bread winner to his three sisters and continued to do so even after getting married to his childhood sweetheart. The early years of marriage were times of struggle, especially financially. But sheer genius, industry, discipline and perhaps faith, all helped to turn the tide in Waldo’s favor. Through his eccelesiastical affiliation with the Catholic church, and notwithstanding his filial and marital responsibilities, Waldo rose literally from rags and obscurity to riches and fame. It took Waldo years and success to come to terms with his past and eventually learned to forgive his errant father, now old and married to his one-time mistress.
