PEOPLE POWER interweaves the stories of ordinary people living through extraordinary times. Set against the backdrop of the 1986 Philippine People Power Revolution, this piece is a powerful portrayal of the peaceful revolution that ultimately toppled the violent and corrupt Marcos dictatorship.

Written as a collective creation by the CBT Collective, PEOPLE POWER uses movement, music, percussion and poetry to tell this dynamic and inspirational story. From the bullet that assassinated opposition leader Ninoy Aquino, to the click of a journalist’s camera, collective playwrights and performers Leon Aureus, Rose Cortez, Nicco Lorenzo, Christine Mangosing, and Nadine Villasin capture a nation in transition and the triumph of the Filipino spirit.
