TRIVIA: Cast and Crew

Did you know that Lino Brocka, Elwood Perez and Joey Gosiengfiao started their showbiz career in Balintataw as stage directors? When Lizaso decided to leave the show after a year, Balintataw tapped some of PETA's active members to take over the job of the stage director on a rotation basis. Among those recruited were Joey Gosiengfiao, Elwood Perez and Lino Brocka who was then known as Cecile Guidote's niño bonito (fair-haired boy).
