IT’S APRIL, WHAT ARE WE DOING HERE?

1st Prize, One Act Play Category, 1964
Carlos Palanca Memorial Awards For Literature

A philandering husband admits to committing a string of extramarital affairs but finds nothing objectionable about it. The wife is hurt knowing all this but is too sophisticated to go ballistic and demand a dissolution of the marriage. The mistress, caught in this love triangle, also gets hurt but seeks a way to work things out to her best interest. How will the husband please both the wife and the mistress? How will the wife win the husband she still loves back? How can the mistress win her lover, the husband, back and get him to keep supporting her career and her lifestyle? Rolando Tinio’s stylish romantic comedy, set in Manila during the 1960s, finds an unconventional solution to these interpersonal dilemmas.
