THE ACTOR-HERO - TEDDY YABUT

Teddy was a campus figure in the early fifties at the University of the Philippines. He directed campus plays and in one production I, the only Atenean, decided to join as performer together with others all from UP. It was the summer stock presentation of ALOYAN a complete original play by UP artists writers, composer, and director. I joined them for raising funds for the chapel of the Holy Sacrifice of Rev. Fr. John P. Delaney, S.J. who was a new chaplaihn in this state university.
He was there upon he request of the UP Catholic Action or UPSCA.

But no one including Teddy would dream of being a hero during the country's dark ages under Marcos' Martial Law.
