and facial expressions. The lack of spoken words or sung lyrics is more than made up for by the creative
steps and arm gestures of the dancers.
Filipino ballets vividly present folktales based on local fables for example, Lola Basyang as well as
epics from neighboring regions, such as India’s Ramayana and adapted Rama Hari. Highly communicative
movements and steps dramatize the actions in the respective stories.
C. Musical Plays
Musical play is a popular and generally lighter form of musical drama than the opera. The themes
are usually more contemporary, and the musical melodies more manageable by the average singer. The
acting is less intense and dramatic. The choreography and dance sequences provide visual breaks from the
ongoing plots.
Musical plays have been associated with the Broadway plays of New York City and West End
Productions in London, including My Fair Lady, South Pacific, Camelot, West Side Story, Les Miserables,
Phantom of the Opera, Lion King, Beauty and the Beast, Wicked, Mama Mia, Cats, and Miss Saigon.
UNDERSTAND
Broadway Musicals
The first major Broadway musical was Showboat, which featured the popular mode of
transport in the American frontier. Since then, musicals have presented other themes: Siamese royalty in
The King and I, English aristocracy in My Fair Lady, Austrian history in The Sound of Music, medieval
English tragedy in Camelot, and interracial gang rivalry and romance in West Side Story. Many Broadway
musicals were also made into films.
