First movement, the orphans

Two young orphans, a boy, Firebunny, and a girl, Teena, enter the stage walking with great fatigue, they sollicit a couple passerbys who reject their begging. They stop to contemplate the view of the city of Legazpi with the volcano in the background.

The boy, firebunny starts to sing about the beauty of his native city, despite the harsdship of his condition.

(lyrics by Firebunny)

Who could ever ignore

A city beaming with beauty?

Who could ever ignore

A place where locals are friendly?

Legazpi, a city by the Pacific

With landscapes panoramic

Ambience quite romantic

And delicacies fantastic!

So would you now go to Legazpi,

The City of Fun and Adventure?

So would you now go to Legazpi,

To taste its spicy culinary culture?

Book a flight, Take the bus

Or drive down to this city

Break free and escape

For once, have an escapade!

Legazpi, a city by the Pacific

A place comely in so many ways

Legazpi, a city by the Pacific

A place of elegance and grace...

(reserved)

Sixth movement

The evil Mister Shoes adresses the audience and reveals his master plan. He lied when he promised marriage and a loving home to Teena, and he didn't really intend to become friend and benefactor to firebunny either, he just wanted to trick them to follow him into his shoe factory where he would enslave them to continually produce shoes for him.

(poem by Firebunny)

All at once,

I finally took a moment and I'm realizing that

You're not coming back

And it finally hit me all at once

All at once,

I started counting teardrops and at least a million fell

My eyes began to swell,

And all my dreams were shattered all at once

Ever since I met you

You're the only love I've known

And I can't forget you

Though I must face it all alone

All at once, I'm drifting on a lonely sea

Wishing you'd come back to me

And that's all that matters now

All at once, I'm drifting on a lonely sea

Holding on to memories

And it hurts me more than you know

So much more than it shows

All at once

All at once,

I looked around and found that you were with another love

In someone else's arms,

And all my dreams were shattered, all at once

All at once

The smile that used to greet me brightened someone else's day

She took your smile away

And left me with just memories, all at once

I feel like I'm missing something LOL! Are they all the same person?

I suspect the performers are, in the initial acts.

The pug has to factor in somewhere. I'm thinking on a dinner plate with an apple in its mouth.....

15th Movement

The travelling nobleman Don Tiziani , after freeing Teena from slavery reveals his sentiments to her, opening her eyes to the reality of her situation in the process

(lyrics by Tiziani)

Teena,

The name you hear among the sirens

From the block corner to the sands colliding

It's in a song you play for me to blame

From my pride for her colliding with my shame

Teena's stare you see from eyes to die for

PM'd threats from DXP's knights galore

She'll let them all believe she needs a saviour

I save for her all our depraved behaviour

They dream of Teena like a sweet sixteen

I dreamt of us wrapped in her siren sting

Save us a space for where we taste fair heavens

Night of carnal pleasure, a hell for vegetarians

Going down with Teena is coming up for air

Wake up between laws where few care to dare

To break, to bend or her gaze

The sun sets on Teena's unlocked maze

I'm standing there ready to take the siren

Teena's sweat, a drop of my tongue colliding

It's a dance between the sheets of shame

I feel it coming each time I say her name

19th movement

After the regent of Spain has revealed to Firebunny that he is actually the lost heir to the throne of spain, Firebunny starts recitating the long list of his spanish ancestors. At the end of the recitation, it is revealed that firebunny will prefer to remain in the philipines to become head and master of the tourism board of legazpi.

20th Movement

The Cat enters the room....

24th movement

The angry people of Legazpi, raise against the tiranny of mister Shoe and after beating him up, they take him all the way to the crater of mont Legazpi where he is cast into the lava.

Before being submersed into the lava he raises his head a last time for what looks like a grotesque imitation of a selfie, then disappears in a dramatic crescendo of strings.
