The history of theater charts the development of theater over the past 2500 years. While

performative elements are present in every society, it is customary to acknowledge a distinction

between theater as an art form and entertainment and theatrical or performative elements in

other activities. Theater began from myth, ritual and ceremony. Early society perceived

connections between actions performed by groups of people or leaders to a certain society and

these actions moved from habit, to tradition, to ritual, to ceremony due to human desire and

need for entertainment.

Elements and principles of arts in western plays:

● Line, shape, form, value, space, color, texture

● Balance, emphasis, movement, proportion, rhythm, unity, variety

Western Classical Plays/Opera

Background Information for Learners

Performances we see today are mere products of the cultures that have influenced the

country through the years.

After several occupation, the Philippine theatre has evolved to become an

amalgamation of the various influences such as zarzuela, comedia, bodabil, and western

classics. Theater was largely performed in English during the time, as it became a large part of

classroom education.

By the 1950’s, theater had moved out of classrooms and the concept of paying for a

ticket to see a theatrical performance emerged. This “legitimate” theater was held in closed

theaters – these became events in themselves, not just mere parts of a celebration or religious

ritual.

During this time, playwrights such as Severino Montano, Wilfredo Ma. Guerrero, and

Alberto S. Florentino honed their crafts and contributed to the development of performing arts

in the Philippines.

Through the years, Philippine theater groups have staged numerous plays in both

English and Filipino, be it written by a Western or local playwright. Spanish culture and

traditions largely influence performing arts in the Philippines, but the contemporary style is

borrowed from the Americans. Classic shows such as The Westside Story and Sound of Music

made waves in recent years when it took the local stage.

18
NOTE: Practice Personal Hygiene protocols at all times.
Some Philippine playwright who took the center stage are the following:

Francisco Balagtas y de la Cruz was born on April 2, 1788 in

Panginay, Bigaa, Bulacan and died on February 20, 1862 of

pneumonia. He was also known as Francisco Baltazar. His best

known work is the Florante at Laura.

Francisco Balagtas was the youngest of the four children of

Juan Balagtas, a blacksmith, and Juana de la Cruz. He studied

in a parochial school in Bigaa and later in Manila. During his childhood years.

Francisco worked as houseboy in Tondo, Manila.

Severino R. Reyes (A playwright) “Father of the Tagalog

Zarzuela”

The son of Rufino Reyes and Andrea Rivera, Reyes was born in Sta.

Cruz, Manila on February 11, 1861. He studied at San Juan de

Letran College and later at the University of Sto. Tomas, where he

studied philosophy.A Filipino writer, dramatist, and playwright,

Reyes was highly acclaimed as one of the giants of Tagalog literature.

Dr. Ricardo G. Abad (A Director) Born in Manila on August 10,

1946 of parents from Cavite and Camiguin. Graduated at the

Ateneo de Manila, after which he obtained a Fulbright grant to

finish a doctorate in sociology at Fordham University in New

York. Full-time Faculty, Department of Sociology and

Western Classical Plays/Opera

Background Information for Learners

Theater means “place of seeing” but it is more than the buildings where

performance take place. To produce theater, a playwright writes the scripts, the

director rehearses the performers, the designer and technical crew produce props to

create the scenes, and actors and actresses perform on stage. Then it will only be a true

theater act when an audience witnesses it.

In a theater, it is important to know that choreography is a part. Practice of

designing sequences of movements of physical bodies (or their depictions) in which

motion, form or both are specified. Choreography may also refer to the design itself. It

is where you could practice the movements and gestures effectively.

It is also understood that in a theater, musicality and instruments are aspects

that needs to be considered. Improvisation in music is creating and playing new music

without preparing it in advance. It involves creativity using the available resources at

hand and your listening skills to compose music spontaneously.

Throughout the eras of the Western art music tradition, including the Medieval,

Renaissance, Baroque, Classical and romantic periods, improvisation was a valued

skill.

28
NOTE: Practice Personal Hygiene protocols at all times.
Hence, it is with great responsibility for a theater to established gestures and

voice, responsible not only for the performance of a show, but also for the language

and expressiveness. Theater should be the text of culture of choreographed

movements and gesture and improvised musical instrument.
