PERFORMING ARTS

Bodabil
Indonesia Pusaka is one of Indonesia's obligatory national songs, composed by a legendary composer
and Indonesian National Hero, Ismail Marzuki

During the Japanese occupation of the Philippines (1941–1945), the bodabil (vaudeville or staged show
consisting of comic skits, music and dance numbers) became a very popular art form in the
archipelago.

Japanese Occupation time is considered as “the Golden Age” of Philippine theater.

Bodabil performances featured anti-Japanese skits. The Filipino Revue produced by Joe Climaco had a
satirical skit starring Togo and Pugo, two well-loved comedians of the period.

Street Theater
Street theater, or theater typically performed in open air settings, on the street, or site-specific areas
without elevated stage areas, began through rituals and later when it responded to societal issues and
became synonymous with political theatre.

Example of Street theater

Pastores - the shepherd’s worship of the Holy Child

Senakulo - Life and suffering of Jesus

Dulansangan - Societal plays during rallies and strikes

Senakulo
depicting stories and events from the Old and New Testaments related to the life, sufferings and death
of Jesus Christ.

was held.

Senakulo is simply the Filipino version of this Catholic tradition, which is known as Passion Play around

one of the most important events in the history of Catholicism.
