Held last March 16, 2014 at the Cultural Center of the Philippines PASINAYA is a multi arts festival, which gathers Filipino music, dance, theater, award winning short films and even food. The affordability of P50 allows more people to watch all these different shows, especially ballet.

CCP Artistic Director Chris Millado said, “That’s the whole idea, its audience development. The message we’re sending out there is its accessible. In fact the P50 is a suggested donation. You don’t have to pay anything if you like. You can pay 1 peso, 20 pesos, 50 pesos, you can pay more if you like. The whole idea is to communicate to audiences that there is labor there is effort into creating art and reaching in your pockets for 50 pesos is your way of supporting the arts and making it sustainable and supporting the artists who create it.”

PASINAYA according to him also encourages more people to seek out other shows in the CCP the rest of the year. Ballet Philippines in fact will have a restaging of the critically praised LA REVOLUCION FILIPINA whose music was composed by Ryan Cayabyab. Jean Marc Cordero will reprise his role as Mabini.
