Live AIDS Silver: The UP Centennial Edition
Live AIDS, Ang Istoryang Dinebelop ng SAMASKOM, is an annual musical-comedy series mounted by UP SAMASKOM, a student organization based in the UP College of Mass Communication. What started as a mere applicants’ batch project back in 1983 is now one of the most awaited events in the Diliman republic. This year, with the full backing of the UP Centennial Commission, Live AIDS, billed as “Live AIDS Silver: The UP Centennial Edition”, is touted to be the grandest and most spectacular version of the yearly extravaganza.
Each year, Live AIDS has never failed to surpass the previous record number of fans who trooped to its staging venues on all performances. Come November 28, 29, and 30, 2008 Live AIDS is set to break its own record of audience size as it conquers the gargantuan 2000-seater University of the Philippines Theater.
As the yearly production reaches a significant milestone – that of being in existence for one quarter of UP’s 100 years of excellent history – resident and alumni members of UP SAMASKOM will be in full force for this year’s Live AIDS Silver: The UP Centennial Edition. If only for the huge roster of well-known personalities it has produced, with the likes of TV/movie directors Lauren “Pinoy Big Brother” Dyogi, Jerry Lopez Sineneng, and Jeffrey Jeturian, prima ballerina Melanie Motus, broadcasters Tina Panganiban-Perez and “Kuya” Kim Atienza, singers Raymond Lauchengco, Miro Valera (Stonefree), Kris Gorra (Cambio) and Wency Cornejo, and top humorists Tuesday Vargas, Rene Boy “Ate Glow” Facunla, and RS (M Butterfly) Francisco and Giselle Sanchez, Live AIDS Silver is certainly posed to give a grand treat to its fans.
This early, the temperature of anticipation for Live AIDS Silver has begun to inch to fever-pitch. And as anybody who has seen Live AIDS could attest, its unique glint of hilarious wit through its comedic sketches and monologues and awe-inspiring high-energy production numbers are truly one for the books.
Ned Legaspi, an illustrious alumnus of UP SAMASKOM and the Philippines’ top director for intelligent comedy, helms LIVE AIDS SILVER: THE UP CENTENNIAL EDITION.
