Background / Context:

Pantomina was originally a wedding dance from the Bicol provinces. It is also very popular
in the northern part of Samar especially in towns of Allen and Capul - both directly facing
Bicolandia.

This dance is traditionally performed during wedding festivities by the couple and their visi-
tors. In fact no social gathering in the Bicol Region is complete without the Pantomina.

During a wedding feast, it is customary for the newlyweds to perform the dance first and
while they dance, their relatives and guests throw coins at them. Sometimes a plate is
placed on the floor so that the guests may place money in it.

The dance is performed several times, by the newly weds and their guests.Dancers may
improvise their steps when performing the Pantomina. The dance was among the first folk
dances to have its dance steps notated.

The pantomina was featured in Francisca Reyes Aquino's first-ever folk dance book, Phil-
ippine Folk Dances and Games, published in February 1926.
