00:00On October 24 to 27,

00:03one of the biggest festivals of short and brief plays

00:09featuring first-timers and new artists will be held.

00:12And to find out more,

00:14we'll be joined by the founder and producer

00:17of the 10th SND Theater Festival,

00:19Carl Alexis Jimco.

00:22We'll also be joined by

00:25the directors of the short musicals that will be held here.

00:28They are Paulito Del Mundo,

00:31Giselle Chua, and Hazel Madronero.

00:34And of course, we'll be joined by Gerald De Leon,

00:37a composer,

00:38and Kate Lawrence Espinoza,

00:41one of the actors and singers.

00:43Good morning to all of you.

00:44Welcome to Rise and Shine in the Philippines.

00:45Good morning!

00:47Welcome.

00:47Alright, tell us more about this SND Festival.

00:51And of course,

00:52we will also want to know

00:54what will you be showing

00:56on the 10th year of your organization.

00:58Tell us more.

00:59First of all, it's our 10th year anniversary.

01:01Okay.

01:02It started with...

01:03Do you know the Bibong Kids in college?

01:06I was one of them.

01:07I was one of the Bibong Kids.

01:08It grew and grew.

01:10Okay.

01:10And now, we are an event

01:14for people who want to try theater.

01:16So again,

01:17this Short and Brief Festival

01:19is unique because

01:21the first-timers and the underdogs

01:26can come here to celebrate the fear of the unknown.

01:28Is this a monologue-type event?

01:29It's really a play.

01:30Okay.

01:31The good thing about this is

01:32even though they are first-timers,

01:34they haven't experienced theater-making yet.

01:36They are surrounded.

01:37We make sure that they are surrounded with mentors

01:40who are industry practitioners

01:41so that they can really help.

01:42So that on the day of the show,

01:44the audiences are really ready.

01:46Ah.

01:47Make sure that afterwards,

01:48the first-timers and the audience

01:50are outside.

01:52They are happy.

01:53Yes, that's right.

01:54We make sure also that all the first-timers

01:56get to experience the proper audition,

01:59the proper room,

02:02the singing in front of the people.

02:04And then, we make sure also that the audience

02:06can also afford the theater

02:08because we know that money is very valuable

02:11these days,

02:12ever since the month.

02:13So we make sure that it's reachable to everyone,

02:16especially our students.

02:17Can you give us an idea

02:19about your short musical?

02:21What's the concept?

02:22What's the story behind it?

02:25Hello.

02:26I'm the director of Kasloy.

02:28Hello, hello, hello.

02:30I'm used to it.

02:31You're still there.

02:32Go ahead.

02:34I'm the director of Kasloy,

02:36short for Bukas Itutuloy.

02:38It's about two friends

02:40who want to make a song

02:43but they can't finish it.

02:45Then there's a pandemic.

02:47They haven't seen each other for a long time.

02:48After the pandemic,

02:49they had a chance to meet again

02:52in their favorite place,

02:55the mountain.

02:57Then, they'll take that opportunity

03:00to finish the song.

03:01Basically, our play is about hope.

03:05That's why the title of the song is Kasloy

03:08because if you lose hope now,

03:11you'll continue tomorrow.

03:13Now, if tomorrow you can't find that hope again,

03:16you'll continue tomorrow.

03:18That's why Kasloy, short for Bukas Itutuloy.

03:21You've told us about the music.

03:23We want to know how you selected the elements

03:28for your theater festival

03:30such as the music, the arrangements,

03:32and you've mentioned also the actors

03:34having the audition in the telescope.

03:37Since we promote inclusivity

03:40on experiencing theater,

03:42all of them need to submit their song pieces.

03:47Even if it's not done yet,

03:49even if the song is half-baked,

03:50it's okay because the goal is

03:52everyone will have a chance

03:54to submit their songs.

03:56After the song,

03:57once we've selected the shortlisted song,

03:59then we have a call for directors.

04:01Again, it's a requirement for directors.

04:03Usually, your resume should be thick and all.

04:05For this one, it's zero.

04:06It's really okay.

04:07The more one experiences,

04:08the better to join and submit.

04:11Once we've selected it,

04:12then we call for auditions for actors.

04:14So, everything really goes through.

04:17This is the only audition that I know

04:19that even if you don't have a prepared monologue,

04:22even if you just read the text,

04:23it's okay.

04:24The point is to show yourself.

04:25And if you're interested to play,

04:28then you are welcome.

04:29In terms of training and rehearsals,

04:32your skills are enhanced.

04:34So, Audrey, we can do it here.

04:36Are you a director now?

04:37No, I'm not.

04:38So, we can do it.

04:39But Audrey's resume is thick.

04:42I have a question for Gerald.

04:45Because one of the songs you composed

04:48can be used in this musical.

04:51So, did you recommend it yourself

04:53or did they really choose the song you composed?

04:58I submitted a few songs that I composed.

05:03Then I chose which one to use.

05:08So, how was it?

05:09What kind of songs did you read?

05:11In terms of its content,

05:13how did you write it?

05:16Mostly, the songs I wrote are about hope.

05:20Hopeful songs.

05:22Then, there are different types.

05:25So,

05:27all of them are drafts.

05:28All of them are raw.

05:30Okay.

05:31And,

05:32then,

05:33it's up to them.

05:34There you go.

05:35It's a relief

05:36because you're a first-timer.

05:38Yes.

05:39So, how was your journey here?

05:41It was good actually

05:42because I have zero experience in acting.

05:45But, I've loved theater for a long time.

05:47But, when I was in college,

05:49I was more into behind-the-scenes.

05:54So, production managers, stage managers.

05:57That's what I did before.

05:58I was too shy in college

06:01to act.

06:02Then, now,

06:03God gave me S&B.

06:05I auditioned.

06:06And then, I got in.

06:08I think it's really good

06:10because it established how

06:12how important it is

06:13to collaborate with your directors,

06:15with your fellow men in theater.

06:17So, what we did in theater,

06:19it's really an output

06:21of our collaboration.

06:23So, I learned a lot

06:25from my director,

06:26from Sir Karl,

06:27from our mentors

06:28which I never had

06:29way back in college.

06:31Okay.

06:32Giselle,

06:33what do you expect

06:34to learn from this experience?

06:37Yeah.

06:38And also,

06:39your short musical

06:40that you'll do here.

06:41Tell us more.

06:42I'm very thankful

06:43to the mentors

06:44who provided S&B.

06:46And, I learned a lot

06:49from writing to directing.

06:52Then, even,

06:53I'm learning from my actors

06:55every time.

06:56Because, they also bring

06:57an experience

06:58that,

06:59ah, yes,

07:00it's possible.

07:02In the future,

07:03you'll be able to

07:04do that.

07:06In fairness,

07:07Hazel,

07:08Hello,

07:09I'm Hazel Madronero.

07:10So, I'm the director

07:11of Nakasilip na Bituin.

07:13So,

07:14I'm with them,

07:15my team.

07:16So, actually,

07:17Nakasilip na Bituin

07:18is about

07:19the story of dreams,

07:21hope,

07:22and, of course,

07:23the responsibility.

07:24Because,

07:25it's the story

07:26of siblings.

07:27So,

07:28it's about family.

07:29So,

07:30the audience

07:31can really relate

07:32to the audience

07:33once they watch

07:34our play.

07:35But, usually,

07:36what do you expect

07:37from the audience

07:38in this kind of

07:39performance?

07:41You know,

07:44we are expecting also

07:45the non-theater participants

07:46to actually watch them.

07:48Or, to actually

07:49enter the show.

07:50That's why we make sure

07:51that our ticket price

07:52is not that expensive

07:53for everyone to enter.

07:54And,

07:55this festival is really worth it.

07:56Because,

07:57for one ticket,

07:58you'll be able to watch

08:04original musical plays,

08:05you'll be able to watch

08:06six of them

08:07at the same time.

08:08No, not at the same time.

08:09You'll be able to watch

08:10them one after the other.
