Anting promises to take audiences to a different world, one that is altogether historical,
traditional, and familiar yet edgy and unusual in approach.
Sa kapangyarihan ng Anting, ikaw ba'y pahuhumaling?
Tunghayan ang sayaw ng mahika, hiwaga at galing.
Tony Perez’s libretto that explores the world of talismans and amulets of Filipino magical traditions. It is made up for four separate movements, each depicting a specific kind of amulet and its powers.
