These two plays dissect the violence inflicted on Filipinos by Filipinos. Country in search of a Hero is a full-length satirical play on the tree mortal sins of the Martial Law Regime : the torture and killing of student activists, the Manila Film Center cover-up, and the theft, of the Golden Buddha, symbol of greed for the Yamashita Gold. On the other hand, A Significant Life, a full-length dramatic play, exposes how a revolution devours its own children. The questions remain : Will the revolutionary of the 20th Century become a lost specie? Will he evolve into the terrorist of the 21st Century?
