Adapted from Reginald Rose's "Twelve Angry Men", "Angry Jurors" is about a jury of animals; a cat, a bunny and a snake, who must decide on the guilt or innocence of the so-called "Big Bad Wolf". Set in the jury deliberation room after the trial, the jury looks over the testimonies and the evidence against the wolf. They later decide if he is guilty of huffing and puffing down of the house of the two little pigs.
Dinhi nalang kutob ug daghang salamat.Adapted from Orlando Nadres' " Hanggang Dito Na Lamang At Maraming Salamat"
Directed by Brett Aleonar
Cast: Jose "Joe" Galeon, Lord Latonio, Lester Cawayan
First staged in 1974, this is considered the first Filipino play that openly tackles the gender issue of homosexuality with an emphatic understanding of closeted and liberal homosexuals and their humanity, and how society regards and treats them.
The play is about the repressed closet gay and pawnshop owner, "Tiyo Fidel". Nobody in town knows of his secret except for his best friend, the flamboyant Julie, the town's beautician, who is more open with his sexuality. He advices Fidel to come into terms with his own nature, especially when Fidel is in love with his own ward, Efren.
