Set within the confines of a seemingly idyllic home, Senyora Alvino, in an effort to honor her late husband's memory, establishes an orphanage. However, the return of her son Oswaldo from abroad sets off a chain of revelations. Long-buried secrets and suppressed truths come to light, exposing the haunting legacies of the past. Mga Multo explores the intricate and painful dynamics of a family bound by duty, love, and the destructive power of lies. As the characters grapple with their own ghosts, they are forced to confront the unsettling question: can the truth truly set them free, or will it entrap them further in a web of despair?
Mga Multo delves into rebellion within domestic spheres, shedding light on the personal revolutions that parallel societal upheavals. The play reflects the season's exploration of the power of love and the necessity of uprising, both in the public arena and within the private confines of family life. Through the struggles and revelations of its characters, the material resonates with the collective yearning for change, truth, and liberation.
