In the grand theater of politics, some actors never truly leave the stage.
Take, for instance, actress-turned-politician Vilma Santos who ensures the cameras are rolling before she engages with a project, appearing deeply interested. It’s as if the spotlight is her lifeline, and without it, the performance just wouldn’t be the same. One might wonder if her policy discussions come with a director’s cut or if her campaign speeches have a hidden blooper reel.
Perhaps her political strategy meetings are more about hitting the right marks than making a mark. After all, in this blend of drama and democracy, the lines between acting and action often blur, leaving us to question: is it politics as performance, or performance as politics?
