Abstract/Summary
The study concerns itself with three plays written by Miguela Montelibano. With the use of Louise Althusser's theoretical discourse on ideological state apparatuses, the study seeks to unravel how the first play, Cusung San Imul, perpetuates the dominant ideology through its valorization of select qualities of the poor. The study then defines the function of ideology through its violation in the study of the second play, Dalamguhanon Sang Malalison. And finally, the study seeks to analyze the reification of ideology through debt slavery in the third play, Mainawaon.
