Dance is still the best way to express oneself, and when you’re
young it is the great escape to get mature and arm ready to face the challenges
of the future. Generations to generations, dancing evolves in many trends from
solo to group dancing, and sometimes it is a uniting factor for those who loves
dancing no matter what age you are.
Here in Puerto Princesa City, there is a Dance Community
that continue to hone themselves in many latest trends of dance, headed by JR
Pacaldo of defunct Infinite Dancers, he form Poprice or Praises of People Rising
in Christian Evolution in 2010, as an alternate to his old group that no longer
exist.
Poprice is a popular sweet rice snack meal that comes
with different colors and commonly favorites of young ones, “Pagkain lang
talaga sya (Poprice) ginawan ko lang ng meaning.” Pacaldo said.
Pacaldo said that at first they only offer free dance
lessons to a certain group mostly from different schools, the sessions happen
in Mendoza Park daily that start at five in the afternoon where several dance
crew gather and ask help from them in building dance routines and choreography
for show purposes, at the moment they all have around 7 dance crew from different communities and schools in the City that meet daily for one reason at the park,
to learn how to dance.
JR Pacaldo
Pacaldo told us that he really loves dancing, for many
many years he became a household name already whenever there is dance contest
or a group presentation in the school, a fiesta or a party in an office, and he
does this for free, he is also join with some senior dancers in the City in
doing this advocacy.
“Kami open sa pagturo wala kaming binabayad sa kanila at
wala rin sila bayad sa amin, gusto lang namin maiwas ang mga kabataan sa mga
bisyo na naka-adik like computer, drugs o barkada.” Pacaldo added.
Since 2010, Poprice has done major concerts in Mall and
in to some schools, even to some municipality that invites those to perform
here in Palawan, his senior dancers including JR also create Poprice as a dance
crew group, they creatively create and mix dance moves and poetry in their
production numbers.
Aside here in Puerto, Poprice also branch in Manila, some
of their students who move or study in Manila miss the vibes of having a dance
community that regularly meet for great cause, and replicate it there to
continue the brotherhood in the dance floor.
Check Poprice community page in Facebook for updates and
gigs, or catch them every 5PM Monday to Sunday at Mendoza Park stage.
Spoliarium, an opera with libretto by Soprano Fides Cuyugan-Asensio and with music by Ryan Cayabyab was the first production I saw pertaining to the life of Juan Luna. Originally staged at the CCP in 2003 starring Robert Seña at the titular role, the opera was staged in Tribeca Performing Arts Center in New York thirteen years later. Philippine Stagers Foundation (PSF) current production of "Obra Ni Juan " was my follow-up. This original Filipino musical was written by Atty. Vince Tañada, PSF President and Artistic Director and with music by Peter Paul "Pipo" Cifra, president of UST Conservatory of Music Alumni Association Incorporated, marked as my first production I saw from PSF. Established in 2002, PSF is a professional theater company with an objective of helping the poor, elderly, sick and even the forgotten, has been consistently conducting free theater workshop in schools nationwide and continuously organizing outreach programs to various charities
