ANG PAGLILITIS KAY MANG SERAPIO
WITH DUENDE THEATRE
September & November 2018
- Written by Paul Dumol
- Directed by Carl Cariño
Considered by many to be a modern classic, ANG PAGLILITIS KAY MANG SERAPIO sets the audience in a courtroom of beggars to watch a trial unfold. The defendant is an elderly beggar named Mang Serapio, who is accused of harboring a child, which affects the communal income of the association of beggars (The Federaçion).
As the trial unfolds, the audience is faced with a harrowing and thought-provoking story that’s centred on morality in the face of extreme poverty, and the flaws in a judiciary that feels all too familiar.
Ang Paglilitis Kay Mang Serapio was nominated for nine BroadwayWorld Awards and won two, including Best Director and Best Featured Actress.
