De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde and Dulaang Filipino present Alyas July

Dulaang Filipino stages 'Alyas July' the reimagination of William Shakespeare's 'Julius Caesar'

The resident theatre company of De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde is once again hitting the stage with their latest performance titled "Alyas July."

Eljay Castro Deldoc's "Alyas July" is a reimagination of Willian Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar" based on the Filipino translation of Bienvenido Lumbera.

Directed by Riki Benedicto, the play revolves around the actor named July, who was invited by Tony, the assistant director, to play the lead role despite of July's earlier decision to leave the production during the start of its practice.

The move of July to abandon the play irked most of the actors and staff, particularly Turbo and Asyong, who think July is a diva who was oozing with arrogance amid the talent.

As the conflict brews at the back stage, would the phrase "the show must go on?" still possible?

Find out on its staging slated on Nov. 26, at 7 p.m. Nov. 27, 28 and 29 at 1 p.m. and 7 p.m. at the 6th Floor Black Box, Benilde SDA Campus, Manila.
