An adaptation in Filipino of Wilfrido Ma. Guerrero's Forsaken House,
this is a three-act play which deals with the fate which befell a
wealthy family after the early years of the post-liberation period.
The family patriarch, Don Ramon was a typical old-fashioned father
who was overprotective of his children to the point that he dictated
everything that he would like to happen to them. He looked at the
world as sinful and thus prevented his children from mingling with
others of their age. He prevented them from enjoying their youth
and confined them as much as possible to their home. He curtailed
their freedom. Don Ramon's wife was the epitome of a typical mother
during that time who had no say in the decisions of the family. She
trusted her husband in everything that concerned the family and
supported and justified every decision he made. One by one the
children left the house. One of the children left for the USA. One
entered the convent. One daughter eloped. One decided to transfer
to an apartment to be away from the father. Only the youngest, who
was afflicted with a venereal disease stayed with his parents.
Tragedy also befell the family when two of the children died, one
tragically and the other due to an illness, which was not detected
earlier. Don Ramon realized his ways and tried to make up for his
shortcomings through his youngest son.

The play provides very good lessons for both parents and children.
It is true that parents should discipline their children but they
should not curtail their freedom. On the other hand, the children
must understand that parents wish only the best for them and that it
pays to be honest and truthful to them.

ADMISSION IS FREE!
