The Cultural Center of the Philippines brings back the Performatura: Performance Literature Festival on November 22-24, 2021. True to the CCP’s mission of bringing our country’s diverse traditions for the common Filipino to experience, entrance to the festival will be practically free. This virtual event will feature performances, poetry readings, literature classes, art talks, chanters from the regions, book discussions, slam poetry contest, book fair, and interviews with renowned writers.
Performatura 2021 is the CCP’s way of highlighting the rich tapestry of Philippine artistic traditions that leap beyond the written word while welcoming writers and performers from diverse communities of the country. Performatura 2021 is a performance literature festival celebrating the intersections of the written word and performance. The word Performatura is a mash-up of the word performance and orature or oral literature. Orature is a term coined by Ugandan linguist Pio Zirimu who wanted to raise oral literature to the level of written literature. The festival’s director is poet and performer Dr. Vim Nadera, Jr.
