“These are already painful,” Enaje, 62, told the Inquirer by phone on March 12, referring to his palms and shoulders. “I wish no one would ask me about the nails. I want to stop,” he said in Kapampangan.No one has volunteered to continue the vow and take the role of Jesus Christ in the village’s street play, Via Crucis, according to Mat Ryan Dela Cruz, barangay captain of San Pedro Cutud, site of the local Calvary, which is a hill made out of Mt. Pinatubo’s lahar.
Artemio Anoza, a traveling faith healer, began the practice in Cutud in 1962. Ricardo “Legring” Navarro wrote his adaptation of Via Crucis and staged it in 1955. Navarro’s grandson Allan has been staging the play every year.
