- JESSICA PAG-IWAYAN

Lisa Macuja-Elizalde's tips for today's youth

The timeless tale "Florante at Laura" by Francisco Balagtas has inspired generations of Filipinos through poetry, film, and stage adaptations.

Now, the classic leaps back into the spotlight with fresh energy as Ballet Manila brings its critically acclaimed interpretation back to the Aliw Theater. Leading it is Ballet Manila artistic director Lisa Macuja-Elizalde, one of the country's first prima ballerinas, who serves as both artistic director and mentor to the company's dancers.

For Lisa, "Florante at Laura" is a chance to prove that classical literature can be as thrilling and relevant as the latest streaming hit. Before the show unveils onstage, Manila Bulletin Lifestyle talked to Lisa, who shared valuable lessons for today's youth.

What do you wish you knew at 18, or when you were just starting out, that would have saved you a lot of heartache?
