Various activities have been lined up by the six municipalities of Marinduque in connection with the Moriones 2008 Lenten celebration. The municipality of Gasan, re-asserting itself as the cultural nerve-center of Marinduque expects a huge turn-out of participants to the annual GASANG-GASANG EASTER FESTIVAL , a street-dancing competition to highlight Christ's Resurrection. Contingents from nearby towns have registered. New activities like a kite flying competition and film-showing of adaptations of Jesus' stories have also been scheduled.
In partnership with the local community theater group, TEATRO BALANGAW, curtains will rise on Holy Thursday and Black Saturday for the Gasan premiere presentation of "ANG KRISTO: PASYON-DULA", a three and-a-half hour play on the life of Christ. The play is composed of an amateur cast of 65 local artists from the towns of Boac, Gasan and Buenavista, and features noted Repertory stage-actor JOHN ARCILLA as KRISTO. To be shown at Guingona Park, Gasan 7:30 pm March 20 & 22, 2008.
