BIAG NI LAM-ANG SCRIPTk
Narrator: A pleasant evening, everyone. Please
sit back and relax as we begin our shadow play.
We are the group 1, and allowed us to bring to
life the story of Lam-ang. A young hero
embarked on series of adventures which lead
him to his heroic death and resurrection.
Scene 1
Narrator: In a faraway land of Nalbuan, there is
Don Juan and Namongan. You will see in their
eyes how much they love and treasure one
another. The townspeople in their land
respected them because they never failed to
show kindness in everyone. Because of that,
Bathala sent them a gifted child as a result of
their love to one another
(Namongan giving birth to Lam-ang)
Lam-ang: Mama
Narrator: Upon hearing the voice of their child,
Don Juan and Namongan rejoiced. And they
know to themselves that this kid is indeed
different and special compared to others. It is
unbelievable that a newborn could speak
immediately and it possess an immeasurable
strength as well.
Mother: This is unbelievable! Did you hear that?
Father: This is a miracle; we must thank Bathala
for this blessing.
Mother: Indeed! But wait, how we should call
him?
Father: Let us call him, Lam-ang. I know that he
will grow into a young fine man in the future. I
hope I could watch him grow with you, my love.
(The mother and the father will shower Lam-ang
with love at this scene)
Scene 2
Narrator: As expected, Lam-ang is indeed a
gifted child. However, the happiness of the
family died when his father was unjustly killed
by the Igorots. The burning range inside him
brought him to his adventure. It is because Lam-
ang really wanted to avenge his father and make
those people suffer the same fate his father
experienced.
Narrator: On his journey, he met Sumarang.
Looking on its feature, Lam-ang do not stand a
chance against him. But, the courageous Lam-
ang decided to fight him.
Sumarang: Do you really think you had a chance
against me?
Lam-ang: I will not allow anyone to get into my
way on killing those Igorots. I will make sure
that every people who will come into my way
will suffer the same way my father does.
Narrator: Lam-ang and Sumarang tried to kill
each other. But in the end, Sumarang lose
against him as he was blown away when Lam-
ang pierced his spear on his stomach.
Scene 3
Narrator: His encounter with Sumarang, led him
to met the nine-headed serpent. Just like
Sumarang, he tried to dissuade him to keep on
going. However, the will of Lam-ang to keep his
promise on avenging his father made him to
keep on going and never stop to persuade
justice.
Lam-ang: No one will ever stop a son, who lost
his father unjustly.
Narrator: At the end of the day, the only one
remained standing and alive is Lam-ang. This
gives him hope to continue with his journey. But
as he goes on, he found it necessary to take a
rest until he fell asleep.
Scene 4
Lam-ang: Father!
Narrator: Lam-ang was awaken by a nightmare.
He dreamed of his father’s head being an object
of festivities of the Igorots. So. He immediately
arose and find the Igorot.
(Lam-ang continue to his journey. Until he found
the Igorots with his father’s head)
Lam-ang: What did you do to my father?
Igorot: Who are you? What are you doing here?
Igorot: Who do you think you are for going here
alone?
Igorot: If I were you, I will just leave or you will
end up like this guy?
Lam-ang: No! I will not leave until you
experienced the pain, I go through for losing my
father! I will not leave, until I made you feel
every pain that my father experienced with your
filthy hands.
Igorot: You don’t stand a chance against us.
Lam-ang: Then, prove it
Narrator: Despite being outnumbered, Lam-ang
did not think of it. He only wants the Igorot to
feel the pain his father had to go through in
their hands. So, with all of his might and
supernatural powers, he fights against a
battalion of Igorots.
(At the end, Lam-ang had to deal with the last
Igorot)
Lam-ang: As the last surviving Igorot, feel my
wrath and bring it upon your death.
Scene 5
Narrator: Satisfied with his revenge, he went to
the town of Calanutian for him to wash his body
on the Cordan River. But, before that, he
decided to pay Cannoyan a visit and invite her
lady-like friends to join him.
Cannoyan: I was afraid that I will not be able to
see you again. But I thank the gods for bringing
you back.
Lam-ang: You don’t have to worry about me.
Lam-ang: Would you like to go to Cordan river
with me?
Cannoyan: I’ll be glad to.
Narrator: When the sun was about to set, they
decided to went back home. On their way
home, Lam-ang gave Cannoyan a gift.
Lam-ang: I know, you were worried about me.
But I am more worried about you. So, receive
this amulet and this must protect you on every
road you will go.
Cannoyan: This is beautiful. Thank you for this.
However, I know that as long as you were beside
me, I have nothing to worry. I will be protected
by you.
Scene 6
Narrator: After the heartwarming encounter of
Cannoyan and Lam-ang on the Cordan River,
they went home. As soon as they arrived, the
parents of Cannoyan were waiting for them.
They have shown their strictness because they
are confused with the real intention of Lam-ang
towards their daughter.
Cannoyan’s Father: What brought you here?
And why are you with our daughter?
Cannoyan’s Mother: What is your real intention
to our daughter?
Narrator: The interrogation of Cannoyan’s
parents continued. Meanwhile, Lam-ang was
terrified that he remained silent. He does not
know how he will explain why they went to
Coradn River this late at night. Luckily, he had
his spokesman, the cock. However, it told them
the reason that they were together is because
Lam-ang wanted to ask for the hand of their
daughter, Cannoyan.
Cannoyan’s Mother: Are you sure with that?
Cannoyan’s Father: I will only allow this, if you
will be able to match the wealth that we have.
Cannoyan’s Mother: I hope you understand
this. Cannoyan is our one and only daughter and
we only wanted the best for her.
Lam-ang: I truly understand and I will be willing
to do anything for Cannoyan.
Scene 7
Narrator: At the end, Laam-ang received his
happy ending with Cannoyan. Their marriage
was celebrated with the townspeople and
everyone rejoiced and they are all happy for
them.
Priest: I now pronounce you, husband and wife.
You may now, kiss your bride.
Lam-ang: I will love you until the rest of my life,
Cannoyan.
Scene 8:
Narrator: After the heartwarming kisses shared
by Cannoyan and Lam-ang, they went to
Nalbuan to continue the celebration. The
people desired to taste the delicacy made of
rarang fish. That is why, Lam-ang dive into the
water to catch it.
Narrator: However, his pet-cock, warned him
that he should not dive into the sea. It is
because something might unpleasant to
happen. However, Lam-ang did not wanted to
spoil the happiness of everyone. So, he ignored
the warning and dive down in the ocean.
Narrator: The warning proved true, when Lam-
ang was swallowed by the bercacan fish. That
event, shattered the heart of Cannoyan into
pieces.
Cannoyan: No! This can’t be true.
Cannoyan: Bathala, if you will take him away
from me. Take me as well. I can’t live without
him.
Cannoyan: Please, bring him back to life. I will
do everything. Just please…
Narrator: The prayer of Cannoyan was heard
when the cock told her that there is a way for
Lam-ang to be resurrected. The only she has to
do is to collect all of his bones deep down the
ocean.
Narrator: Cannoyan did not bother to waste
anytime and find a diver that will collect the
bones of his husband.
Cannoyan: Marcus, help me to bring back my
husband. If you succeed gathering all his bones,
I will assure that I will give you everything. Just
help me, please, help me.
Narrator: Marcus agreed with it and he dive
deep down the ocean to collect all the bones of
Lam-ang.

Marcus: Here are all the bones of Lam-ang

Cannoyan: I know that my words is not enough,

but I am grateful for this Marcus.

(Once it is all collected, the lights will be out)

Scene 9

Narrator: When all bones were settled. The

roaster crowed and the bones started to move.
And when the dog barked, Lam-ang arose and
resurrected from death.

(Lights will be open and it will show, Lam-ang

and Cannoyan hugging each other.)

Narrator: And that is the heroic adventure of

Lam-ang that ended between the warm arms of
his wife, Cannoyan.
