Care Divas are Back Onstage!

Image
The Love Yourself supports showcasing the talents of our Lovers, in celebration of the 45 sterling years of theater production - both Philippine Educational Theater Association (PETA) and Repertory Philippines teamed up for the very first time and bringing the wonderful transgender characters known as Care Divas . Be mesmerized by their wonderful music and graceful dance moves, most of all be amazed by their flamboyant costumes and very heartwarming story. Care Divas is more than just for entertainment, as it conveys the deepest heart and soul of our OFWs, their sacrifices to help their families back home. Having transgenders as characters will be truly interesting, as the story would reveal that they are no different from any one of us...they have souls to live the dreams, and the heart to love beyond all means. The Lovers recommends to watch CARE DIVAS  on  April 27 (8:00PM), 28 & 29 (3:00PM & 8:00PM), 2012   .  TICKETS AT ONSTAGE ARE AS FOLLOWS: LOWER AND UPPER ORCHESTRA S

Nessun Dorma

Supports  Director Jedd Rommel & Producer/Writer Ron Genato Asia-Europe Short Film Contest Entry Nessun Dorma the contest involves popularity votes based on the number of Facebook LIKES To VOTE : CLICK LINK  Synopsis: Tired of chasing Ken, Paul meets him one last time before leaving on a journey to Europe in search for a better place to dream and love.  The film explores the love and relationship struggles of Asian gay men caused by social constraints. It describes their aspirations for Europe, where there is a culture of acceptance and open-mindedness, as well as support from governments in the form of legal same-sex partnerships. Nessun Dorma is a famous aria from Puccini's opera "Turandot" that depicts an unknown prince's unrequited love to a beautiful but cold princess. In the film, the aria is used to mirror Paul's wailing for a love that cannot be fulfilled.

We want to hear from you, please comment. What we can get from the charts and tables are the following notes: 1) There is CLEARLY an epidemic 2) If we don't do something NOW, it WILL progress or even get worse than the projected numbers. 3) The more PLHIV we have, the more resources we will need for treatment, care and support. This will eventually deplete the government
