Being the centre of attention is Freddy Ginebra’s natural habitat, be it in front of a few dozen spectators in a classroom when he was a schoolteacher, or facing a packed stadium. Theatre has defined him—socially and politically too. He is certainly the type of person who would rather give than take. His guiding beacon—his father—was abruptly taken away from him back in the day. Ever since, Freddy dedicated his life to the pursuit of justice.
