Haunted Hall VI: Find out what’s beneath
“Everything is not what it seems. There’s something evil beneath.”
“Everything is not what it seems. There’s something evil beneath.”
The De La Salle University (DLSU) Harlequin Theatre Guild’s adaptation of Merlinda Bobis’ “Fish-Hair Woman,” which had its second restaging since it was first showcased in March, proved to be just as poetic as the novel. The show, directed by Raffy Tejada, ran November 19-22 at the Teresa Yuchengco Auditorium, DLSU.
Dark nights dotted with floating fireflies, 12 meters of thick, black hair and a river that holds the memories of a thousand hearts. Gone are the days of blood and war, now only her tale carries on. Gifted with 12 meters of hair, she bathes in the river of Iraya and trawls for the soul-less bodies who once lived at the heart of her beloved town, in hopes of serving their souls and their families the justice they deserved. Will they find their justice? Will the Fish-Hair Woman find hers?
