Ballet Philippines presents "And The Winner Is" at the CCP

And the Winner Is...

Ballet Philippines can do anything and everything and you can bear witness to it. It's a fact; Ballet Philippines, one of the oldest ballet and contemporary dance company in the Philippines, has the widest dance repertoire in the country today.

Ballet Philippines can do excerpts from internationally-acclaimed classical ballets such as Swan Lake and then turn around to do modern choreographies set to heart-tugging kundimans which never fail to strike a chord in the Filipino heart.

This unique production incorporates the synergy between pop culture and the well-loved classics. Its overall concept depicts a dance competition not unlike the style of traditional classic pieces by using the highlights of the most well-loved classical ballets as competition entries. A panel of actors will bind the entire production together, extending their facetious commentaries, scathing remarks, and outright hysterical extravagancies.

Guest Actors: Floy Quintos, Roeder, Wilma Doesn't, Wowie de Guzman, Julienne Mendoza and Maritina Romulo.

"And The Winner Is" will be staged by the Ballet Philippines at the Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP Complex). For more details, please call 551-0221, 551-1003 or 832-6011. Ticket prices are: P800, P600, P500, 400, P300, P250, P200, P100.
