"Indayugang Banal" is a two-hour play transporting audiences into a fictional city whose citizens are obsessed with gods and goddesses. In town, we're introduced to the masked hero Buana, who aims to wipe out criminals and supernatural creatures, similar to the beasts and life forms in the aswang folklore.
With the creatures growing in number, Buana fears the time when she will be incapable of defeating them.
In the play, we're also introduced to Lourdes Remedios, a vlogger-content creator wannabe, and her boyfriend, Paolo, a fitness enthusiast who happens to be hiding a strange and unsettling past.
Expect superheroes, Filipino myths, social media traction, and the incredible powers of faith and fans weaved into the story.
The play is directed by Tuxqs Rutaquio, with dramaturgy by Dominique La Victoria.
