2694 Canlubang: Theatre retains its magic, despite social media
austraLasia #2694 Theatre retains its magic, despite social media
CANLUBANG (Laguna Philippines) 17 August 2010 --In this time of
the social media, theatre has not lost its distinct magic and grip in
delivering a lesson.
This must be one of the reasons why our Prenovitiate in the FIN
Province continues to stage theatrical presentations when major feasts
of the Blessed Mother come along. This year, for the solemnity of
Mary’s Assumption, the Prenovitiate staged the musical ‘The Queen’s
Knight.’
Families of our aspirants came together with their
friends and classmates to witness the performance. This year, the
production staff and cast, composed of Salesians, prenovices and
college students gave renewed life to a musical written 14 years
ago by then cleric Joel Camaya (now ordained). It’s about the
martyrdom of St. Maximilian Kolbe who gave his life in exchange for a
man who was supposed to die in the hands of the Nazi soldiers.
The event was capped off with a rousing goodnight
talk by Fr. Eli Cruz, FIN Province Provincial. _________________ AustraLasia is an
