THE STAGE-to-screen performance of Tanghalang Pilipino’s (TP) Doc Resureccion: Gagamutin ang Bayan will stream from April 17 to 30 via www.ticket2me.net. Set in a poor fishing village, the play follows an idealistic young doctor, Jess Resureccion, who is running for mayor with the promise of helping uplift the status of its residents. But standing in his way is his cousin, Boy Pogi Resureccion, who was paid by the incumbent mayor to run as a nuisance candidate and hopefully spoil the votes for Jess. Jess tries to convince his cousin to withdraw his candidacy. Marco Viaña stars as Doc Jess Resureccion, while Jonathan “Tad” Tadioan stars as Boy Pogi Resureccion. Also in the cast are Nanding Josef as Papang, Sherry Lara as Mamang, and Lhoryie Nuevo as Elsa. Tickets are priced at P350 (general audience), and P550 (barkada promo for three tickets).
