James Cousins Company's "Without Stars" and "There We Have Been"


Wazzup Pilipinas!

"There We Have Been" focuses on the first half of Murakami’s novel, wherein two dancers enact the development of relationships between the novel’s protagonist and his late best friend's girlfriend. This duet sees English performers Aaron Vickers and Lisa Welham intensely folding, wrapping and balancing, with the female character never once touching the floor.

"Without Stars" tells the other half of the story. Framed from the male protagonists’ point of view, the piece for three dancers tells the story of a man on the brink of losing the life of his love. The dance piece features international contemporary dancers Albert Garcia (Spain), Chihiro Kawasaki (Japan) and Georges Hann (UK).

James Cousins trained at the London Contemporary Dance School (LCDS), graduating in 2010 with a first class honors degree. As a performer, major highlights of his career are dancing for the international tour and film adaptation of Matthew Bourne’s Swan Lake and performing for the 2012 film Anna Karenina starring Keira Knightley and Jude Law.

Based on Hitoshi Iwaaki’s award-winning manga, Parasyte -the maxim- will infuse the late 1980s – 1990s classic with a modern edge by setting the stage for the parasite epidemic in present day Japan.

Title: Parasyte -the maxim-
Genre: Sci-fi, thriller, horror

The story unfolds when Shinichi Izumi (voiced by Nobunaga Shumazaki, Photo Kano), an ordinary high school student, is attacked by an alien parasite. He narrowly escapes from being fully infected by a parasite known as ‘Migi’ (Japanese for ‘Right’), who only manage to assume control of Shinichi’s right arm. This marks the beginning of their extraordinary friendship, as both Shinichi and Migi will learn to co-exist with each other. The plot thickens when they encounter other man-killing parasites and find themselves caught in the battle of the two species. With them being neither fully human nor alien, which side of the battle will they choose to take?

PANA Foundation Presents Digital ME: 5th PANAF IMC Youth Congress


Wazzup Pilipinas!
Greetings from PANA and PANA Foundation!

The PANA Foundation will be staging the 5th PANAF IMC Youth Congress on November 21, 2014 at the Unilab Bayanihan Center, Pioneer St., Pasig City. This year’s theme is “Digital ME”.

Today’s youth go through a phase of impatience, demanding immediate gratification. Except, in a digital world, they have access to solutions and options that never before existed. Their attention span is short and they always seek affirmation. There are too many distractions and peer pressure is greater than ever.

For every ‘self-centered’ youth is an individual needing to shout out his individuality, and to seek reaction – and approval – for their action/opinion. The challenge is how to open their minds to a world where good actions and ideas, no matter how small, have the chance to spark into a world-changing phenomenon.
