Culture gastronomy, mid-year

"O, di ba mas maganda kung may ART sa buhay mo?" CCP once asked. And I agreed. So much so that one of my "resolutions" for 2010 was to increase on my "culture spending." And 2010 started free actually when BFF Eon and I went to Pasinaya, CCP's preview festival in February. Now the following months will definitely culturally gastronomic (see below).

22 June - 04 July
THE VIRGIN LABFEST VI
Untried, Untested, Unstaged Plays
A festival of new, unpublished, unstaged works by Philippine playwrights.

25 June - 27 June
PAMUNUAN: KARANGYAAN AT KADAKILAAN
Rituals of Leadership and Prestige in the Philippines
(Ramon Obusan Folkloric Group)

02 July - 04 July
WI-FI: INDEPENDENT CONTEMPORARY DANCE FESTIVAL 5
(The CCP and Choreographers’ Network)

09 July - 18 July
CINEMALAYA: Philippine Independent Film Festival 2010

23 July - 22 August
Andrew Lloyd Webber’s “CATS: NOW AND FOREVER”
(Lunchbox Theatrical Productions, David Atkins Enterprises, Concertus and All Youth Channels in association with The Really Useful Company Asia Pacific.)

For the complete line-up of CCP events click HERE (June) and HERE (July).

Now, the remaining challenge is how to manage the moolah for all these. (Wala rin naman ganda kung walang pera.) And there are things that are simply way out of my league such as Cats. (Hindi kailangan mag-ambisyon ng sobrang kagandahan.)
