First, let’s get this off the bat: Dramatis Personae and artistic director Lito Casaje should be commended for co-producing, along with the French Embassy, Jean-Paul Sartre’s “No Exit,” which recently played for one night at the Rajah Sulayman Theater in Fort Santiago.
“No Exit,” by French playwright Jean-Paul Sartre, depicts three deceased characters in the afterlife, punished by being locked into a room together for eternity. It is the source of Sartre’s often misinterpreted quote, “L’enfer, c’est les autres,” or “Hell is other people.”
Playwright-director Lito Casaje is the spokesperson of the educated middle-class of the 1980s and 1990s.
Now that he’s fighting the brave fight against cancer, stage and film director Lito Casaje likens himself to a character in the Henrik Ibsen play, “Peer Gynt.”
