This song about how far the gap between heaven and earth has widened, nature has become less benign, and goodwill among men has disappeared, came from VP’s original modern ballet\u00a0Tales of the Manuvu<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Choreographed and directed by Alice Reyes. It is based on the retelling of the origin myths of the Manuvu. National Artist for Literature Bien Lumbera wrote the script and lyrics for the music of Nonong Pedero while Broadway theater designer Loy Arcenas creates all-new sets. Don’t miss this entertainingly clever take on the enmity between the gods of good and evil, the creation of man and his empowerment.<\/p>\n
