Today, the Philippine Legitimate Stage Artists Group, Inc. (PHILSTAGE), in cooperation with the Cultural Center of the Philippines and the National Commission for Culture and the Arts, is mounting “Theater Herstory 101: A Tribute to National Artist for Theater Daisy Hontiveros-Avellana,” at 3:00 and 8 p.m., at the Tanghalang Aurelio Tolentino (CCP Little Theater). Admission is free.
“The multi-media concert-informance brings to a close the CCP-led year-long tribute to Ms. Avellana, an actor, director and writer who elevated professional theater to a new level of excellence,” explains PHILSTAGE in a statement. Ms. Avellana turns 91 years old on Saturday, January 26.
Let me add my own voice to the acclaim by reposting the appreciation piece I wrote on Ms. Avellana last year to mark the opening ceremonies of the year-long tribute to the “First Lady of Philippine Theater.”
