The recital production received appreciative applause from the audience; Jun F. Flavier Pablo, chairman and president of Gantimpala Theater, and Sr. Araceli Loredo of Sta. Isabel University, were also in attendance.
In his short speech, Pablo said: “I am very much impressed with the good job done. I hope that that after your workshop experience with us, you continue to enhance your skills and pursue what you have started. I know that this signals the beginning of your life-long love affair with the theater.”
