Guam Congresswoman
Madeleine Z. Bordallo
Since the GUAHAN Project was established in 2003, Guam Congresswoman Madeleine Z. Bordallo has served as the Honorary Chairperson of the organization. She also strongly encouraged the founders of the GUAHAN Project to serve the community when the organization was being formed and when challenges seemed insurmountable. Despite the shame and stigma still associated with the epidemic, Congresswoman Bordallo has been very supportive of the many people who make AIDS prevention, education, awareness and care a reality. The GUAHAN Project proudly salutes Congresswoman Bordallo in the fight against AIDS on Guam. |
Director’s Notes: The Normal Heart
“The human contribution is the essential ingredient. It is only the giving of oneself to others that we truly live.” These are the words of Ethel Perry Andrus. Words that truly represent the work you are about to witness tonight. The Normal Heart was just another job I auditioned for as a professional actor. I played the role of Mickey Marcus. But I did not realize the impact and the importance of this work as a theatre piece and a message piece. We learn a great deal about each other based on our histories and actions. This play is a history on the plague we know as AIDS and is one of most important examples of getting to know what we are up against as activists and people living in the age of this disease.
The presentation of this play is not as unorthodox as you might think. Plays go through processes of evolution known as staged readings. The directors, producers, and playwrights need to see the play “on its feet” and more importantly the actors giving the characters a voice. We as actors kindly and graciously give you this work as an expression of our dedication to educating the public about AIDS and the prejudice that surrounds it. The work itself is presented in the simplest form possible – bare stage, uniformed costumes, and basic lighting. It is now your job to use your imagination to create the scenarios and situations. We hope to help you in the images you create.
Now we ask you to contribute and to give of yourself for this cause we feel so strongly.

Thank You!
Three sold-out performances and one very lavish gala event helped the community to become more aware of AIDS and how we need to protect and educate ourselves from this epidemic. Very special thanks to the amazing talents of the RENT cast, Choreographer Margie Dancel, Music Director Dr. Randall Johnson, Director Ernest Ochoco and all of the hard-working and selfless volunteers who made this production possible. Thank you again for your support in the fight against AIDS.
