Parangal presents our upcoming production, Palin-awa in collaboration with Jenny Bawer Young, Kalinga culture bearer.
Kalinga Palin-awa is a ritual that recalls one’s spirit to the community, creating a spiritual balance when a person or community has experienced extreme joy or sadness.
Be the First to Know When Tickets Go Live
Honoring the Kalinga Tradition
Palin-awa will be the first stage production inspired by the ritual, to premiere in the U.S., here in the San Francisco Bay Area!
In collaboration with the Bawer family in Lubuagan, Kalinga, and in performance alongside Jenny Bawer Young, Kalinga Culture Bearer, the show will also premiere new designs and patterns for Kalinga attire.
Part of an Evolving Project
Palin-awa is an ongoing performance project that will continue to grow through research and collaboration, leading toward a culminating stage production in 2028. Each phase of development brings new artistic work and deeper storytelling inspired by the Kalinga tradition.
