The marginalized, the underprivileged and the underrepresented sectors of society seized the spotlight in Beneath, a thesis theater production by Carlos G. Serrano III, a Dance major at the School of Design and Arts of De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde (DLS-CSB).

The theme was inspired by women, children and senior citizens, members of the LGBT community, persons with disability, informal settlers, farmers, and fisherfolk.

Adam Alonzo (the father), interpreting the dance of his decision on how will he give his daughter, played by Aileen Quilatan, a better life.

Produced by Benilde’s Bachelor of Performing Arts in Dance Program, in collaboration with Team Elite and Team Package Makers, the drama in motion detailed the difficult stages that landowner took to address the anger and dissent expressed by informal settlers who have trespassed on his property. 

Choreographer, Director, and Producer Serrano used this medium to explore the interrelatedness of the experiences of individuals and sectors that society seems to have left unnoticed.

Beneath was likewise given life by Set Designer Jay Lorenz Conanan, Graphic Designer Taryn Navarro, and Lighting Designer Tsung Han Lu.
