'WAIT FOR IT'
Young talents in theatre concert
New and young FilipinoAustralian performers showed
their talents in a unique theatre
concert held last month at the
Rooty Hill RSL.
The ‘Wait for It’ musical by
Filoz-Art Youth was successfully
staged as a coming out finale to
a theatre workshop conducted
by the Filoz-Art recently. The
workshop was designed to help
participants to develop their
skills and talents and enable
them to perform before an
audience.
The show, under the direction
of musical director Rie Manaloto,
focused on stories of the
youth --what they see, what
they feel; their concerns, their
worldview, and how their lives
are connected and affected by
society.
Creative and artistic director
was Geraldine Cruz-Dimaano
with Ferdie Dimaano as drama
and video production director.
The group is composed of 12
youth, ages 13 to 26yrs old,
and a combination of seasoned
performers in singing and
theatre and new talents - all
sharing the passion and love of
performing arts.
