From Friday December 3rd, 2010 To Sunday D With special guest artists MARIACHI FLOR DE TOLOACHE SIX PERFORMANCES ONLY DECEMBER 3-4-5 & 10-11-12, 2010 Fridays & Saturdays 8 pm, Sundays 4 pm Tickets $15 Students/Educators $12 FUENTE OVEJUNA is one of the most important plays by the Spanish Golden Age author Lope de Vega. Although the play was written in verse in the 17th century, it’s staged in Ciudad Juarez in the 21st century. It's the story of Comendador, a landowner who believes that he also owns the farmers who work his land. In this version, the farm workers become maquiladora (factory) workers, the musicians are transformed into a mariachi trio who share tequila with the townsfolk at Laurencia and Frondoso’s wedding, and the Comendador is portrayed as a ruthless drug dealer. Dead tyrants and traitors. Traitors and tyrants dead. (Mueran tiranos traidores. Tiranos traidores mueran). The show is 90 minutes long with no intermission. There will be an exhibition in the lobby. It is performed in Spanish with English subtitles.

My Audition for Almodóvar A one-woman show for an actress on the verge of a nervous breakdown. She can sing, she can dance, and she can act… but she can’t get rid of her Spanish accent. That’s why Inma Heredia is determined to audition for the only director who can make her a star. Filled with fun, flair and flamenco, “My Audition for Almodovar” is a magical, musical, and hysterical journey from the heart of Seville to the small intestine of New York City. This one woman show, created and directed by Alberto Ferreras —creator of “Celebrity Habla” currently airing on HBO, and author of the award winning novel “B as in Beauty”— features the many talents of Inma Heredia, the andalusian actress and singer who has become a staple of the alternative scene in Manhattan. “My audition for Almodóvar” is the chance of a lifetime for an actress on the verge of a nervous breakdown. My Audition for Almodovar Dates: Venue: Centro Español 239 W 14th st, between 7th Ave and 8Th Ave. More info: www.MyAlmodovar.com <http://www.MyAlmodovar.com> Press photos available at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/53319750@N05/ |
Repertorio Español Charting the rise and fall of the Trueba family in an un-named Latin American country (reminiscent of Chile), the piece spans the 1920s through the 1970s, as the country moves through enormous sociopolitical changes that culminate in a devastating dictatorship. The play is told from the point of view of, Alba, the youngest of three generation of women. The swirling memories, frightening and amusing, lyrical and fantastic, illuminate the stage as Alba records her family's history and ultimately finds the strength to recover her own story. |
The play, Calderón’s most famous work, is considered an allegory about the human situation and the mystery of life. Tickets start at $25. VIP Seats available. Now in repertory. For reservations please visit repertorio.org Starring Zulema Clares, Luis Carlos De La Lombana and Silvia Sierra |
