Immersive 60-minute dance-media performance INCARCERATED 6x9 is the latest work by Alleluia Panis, performed by 10 dancers to original music by composer Rachel Lastimosa of the indie-soul, R&B duo Dirty Boots and filmmaker Wilfred Galila 7:30pm Fri/Sat, 3pm Sun May 4-13, 2018 at Bindlestiff Studio in the heart of SOMA Pilipinas: Filipino Cultural District.
Exploring the hopes, delusions and the ultimate will to survive in the loneliest, most bitter place on the planet, INCARCERATED 6x9 is inspired by the real-life accounts of young Pinoy and Asian Americans incarcerated between 1966 and 2008. The bold, physically and emotionally layered work of creative nonfiction located in the year 2048 highlights the state of humanity among Pilipinos in the United States, 150 years after the US bid for global power began. The story is told through the lives of three Pilipino American inmates and their struggles to endure the American judicial system: Ronoldo 'Boying' Batongbakal performed by hip-hop, folkloric dancer Jonathan Mercado, Ramon 'Mon' Dela Santo by street dance theater, martial artist, and Embodiment Project dancer Johnny Nguyen, and theater artist Gregory Manalo, and Jesus 'Hes' Gatpala by Parangal Dance Co.'s June Arellano.
INCARCERATED 6x9 will be performed at Bindlestiff Studio's intimate black box theater with abstract simulations of a jail cell's six-by-nine dimensions, giving audience members a visceral glimpse into life behind bars.
