"This book investigates the history of the Philippine People's Theatre, its culture,
aesthetic and pedagogical aims and its contribution to the changing status and role
of the Filipino women. It focuses on the Philippine Educational Theater Association
(PETA), the most significant exponent of the Philippine People's Theatre. The book
differentiates itself from studies in this area in several ways. Firstly, by aiming
to establish the connection between feminism, nationalism and radical theatre as these
ideologies coalesced in the time of the inception of this pioneering theatre. Secondly,
by highlighting the central role of two prominent PETA women: Cecile Guidote Alvarez,
PETA's founder and Marilou Leviste Jacob, one of PETA's leading playwrights. Thirdly,
this book extends to include PETA's more recent activities such as its mobile theatre.
The content is of strategic interest to Third World development workers, to students
and researchers investigating the various socio-economic, political, educational and
cultural areas of Philippine studies."--Back cover
