Botánica de Dolores Prida Dirigida por Kivin Bauzo

Dolores Prida was a feminist and Hispanic dramatist whose central theme was the search for the identity of Latino/Hispanic immigrants, specifically women, in the United States.

She was known as the Cubarican, born in Cuba but also well versed in Puerto Rican culture, learned in New York, she wrote this play, La Botánica, with all Puerto Rican (Nuyorican) characters.

La Botánica explores cultural conflicts in East Harlem among an old Puerto Rican woman, her daughter, and her granddaughter, who has just graduated from an Ivy League university. The old woman, Doña Geno, runs a business dealing in herbs, spells, and spiritual powers. She and her daughter, Anamu, expect Anamu's daughter, Milagros Castillo, to take over the shop, La Ceiba.

But, Milagros -- who began calling herself Millie at college since, as she says, Miracles Castle isn't a great name in English -- plans to take up a career in a big bank downtown and forget about the barrio. But she has things to learn that the Ivy League doesn't teach, and Doña Geno is just the professor she needs.

Tropico Macbeth: El Ascenso al Poder by John Rivera-Resto (adaptation of Shakespeare’s Macbeth)

to Aug 11

Tropico Macbeth: El Ascenso al Poder by John Rivera-Resto (adaptation of Shakespeare’s Macbeth)

Trópico Macbeth is an original story based on William Shakespeare´s The Tragedie of Macbeth. The new play, while staying close to the basic plot of the original (a tragedy of murder and political ambition), is set in the Caribbean in 1935 with a different storyline and new characters. While the play is in Spanish (with projected translation), new “American” characters speak mostly English, and the dialogue reflects popular idioms and the language of the time.

Trópico Macbeth is a story of strong women, and how they use men to achieve power, justice, and revenge. The decades-old hatred between the Orillan and the Doncan families explodes when “la dama Macbeth” (lady Macbeth), uses her husband, commander Macbeth, in a Machiavellian plan to overthrow the Doncan regime to reinstate the Orillan to power. But in a changing and tumultuous world of strong ideological divisions, American commercial and imperial political interests, and new modernity of unrestrained ambition, Trópico Macbeth melds into a reality straight out of 1935 headlines. In the same vein that brought you the LatinUs inaugural production of La Casa de Bernarda Alba, Trópico Macbeth will be a once-in-a-lifetime spectacle event and the world premiere of a must-see production crafted and performed by a stellar cast.

Trouble In Mind a Production by Seat of The Pants

TROUBLE IN MIND

by Alice Childress

This 1955 classic wasn't produced on Broadway until 2021, since the playwright held firm to her convictions about its content and ending.

Set during rehearsals for a major Broadway production, TROUBLE IN MIND illuminates the inner life of a Black actress struggling with her career. As Wiletta grapples with how she's treated, the role she's being asked to play, and what the production says (or doesn't) about race in America, her growing discomfort sets off a chain of events that reveal fissures within the acting company — and bring her into conflict with her director. Who will prevail? Find out as Seat of the Pants presents Alice Childress' 1955 play which didn't premiere on Broadway until 2021: a funny, satirical, moving, and heartbreaking look at racism, identity, and ego in the high stakes world of New York theatre.

Directed by Jeannine Gaskin and produced by Craig Joseph, the production stars Elizabeth Domer, Andrew Knode, Madison Ledyard-King, Michael Montanus, Zyrece Montgomery, Tom Stephan, Nicole Sumlin*, Darryl Tatum, and Tom Woodward*.

Sam Landgraf stage-manages, with costume design by Marti Coles, lighting design by Ayron Lord, props design by Mia Jones, sound design by Aria Smith, and scenic construction by Christian Sanko.

CCONTENT ADVISORY: mild profanity, racist remarks and language, descriptions of racial violence

TROUBLE IN MIND is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc. — www.concordtheatricals.com

Is it almost Christmas, what happens when a group of Mexican angels have to help Mary and Joseph to get safely to the manger so that the baby Jesus is born and a group of little devils, also Mexicans, make life impossible for them through of a bet to avoid it?

Well, a mess of the devil, Sorry (the sign of the cross.)

We will laugh out loud while a heavenly or earthly battle takes place between angels and devils to see who wins the bet.

And then. What happened in the 1940s, in a Puerto Rico neighborhood called Cuchilla, Saint Claus was not known, but only the Three Wise Men and a young teacher from Nueva Yol decided to change the tradition?

Oh, blessed Santa Clo is going to have to run for his life!!

In Spanish, with English supertitles!

¿Ya es casi Navidad, que pasa cuando un grupo de ángeles mexicanos tiene que ayudar a María y a José a llegar sanos y salvos al pesebre para que el niño Jesús nazca y un grupo de diablitos, también mexicanos, les hace la vida imposible a través de una apuesta para evitarlo?

 Pues un enredo del demonio, Perdón (signo de persignación.)

Nos reiremos a carcajadas mientras ocurre una batalla celestial, o terrenal entre los ángeles y diablitos a ver quién gana la apuesta.

 Y luego. ¿Qué pasa cuando por los años 40’ en un barrio de Puerto Rico llamado Cuchilla no se conocía a Saint Claus, pero solo a Los Reyes Magos y un joven maestro de Nueva Yol decide cambiar la tradición?

¡¡Ay, bendito que Santa Clo va a tener que correr por su vida!!

La obra relata los hechos del la toma del Palacio de justicia en Bogota en noviembre del 1986 desde el punto de vista de la gente común. Julieta Marín, una joven estudiante de derecho que trabaja para costearse sus estudios como cajera en la cafetería del Palacio de Justicia, jamás apareció entre los sobrevivientes y los muertos de la toma. La desaparición desencadena el caos, los temores y represiones de los inquilinos de la casa: Sergio, un mesero con dotes de payaso, y Victoria, su mujer, quienes conforman el nudo pasional de la historia, Carlos, un usurero que negocia con la desesperación de los demás, Humberto, un joven confundido que no logra superar su falta de madurez, y Lucía, la madre, dueña de la casa, una mujer que cae en las redes de la locura desde la desaparición de su hija, se convierten en victimas de una guerra ajena y propia a la vez. Le dan color a la bandera del país personificando los imaginarios de cualquier colombiano que se enfrenta a los conflictos políticos y que no necesariamente es consciente de ellos, que vive sus anhelos y sus frustraciones en medio de los turbulentos cambios sociales de la época.

Baños Públicos, S.A. de Esther Suárez Durán, dirige Mónica Torres.

Dos seres, entre los tantos que componen la humanidad sin historia, la celadora y el usuario de un baño público, se encuentran en este espacio preterido y adverso, marcado por el abandono, y establecen un contrapunto entre quien desea aprovecharse de la necesidad de los otros para lucrar con ella y la que entiende el bien propio unido al bien común. Texto eminentemente teatral e imaginativo, curioso deudor tanto del absurdo como del realismo, exhibe un diálogo pleno de ingenio, matizado por el humor, la ironía y el sarcasmo y constituye una aguda sátira de la realidad cubana contemporánea.

Two beings, among the many that make up humanity without having a story, the caretaker and the user of a public bathroom, find themselves in this neglected and adverse space marked by abandonment, and establish a counterpoint between those who wish to take advantage of the need of others to profit from them and who believes in the common good. An eminently theatrical and imaginative script, a curious debtor of both absurdity and realism, it exhibits a dialogue full of wit, tinged with humor, irony, and sarcasm, and constitutes a sharp satire of contemporary Cuban reality. For ages 16+.
Directed by Mónica Torres.

Tickets are non-refundable. Covid vaccine or negative test in previous 72 hrs of event is required.

Baños Públicos, S.A de Esther Suárez Durán

Dos seres, entre los tantos que componen la Humanidad sin historia, la celadora y el usuario de un baño público, se encuentran en este espacio preterido y adverso, marcado por el abandono, y establecen un contrapunto entre quien desea aprovecharse de la necesidad de los otros para lucrar con ella y la que entiende el bien propio unido al bien común. Texto eminentemente teatral e imaginativo, curioso deudor tanto del absurdo como del realismo, exhibe un diálogo pleno de ingenio, matizado por el humor, la ironía y el sarcasmo y constituye una aguda sátira de la realidad cubana contemporánea.

La Casa de Bernarda Alba de Federico Garcia Lorca Dirigida por John Rivera-Resto

In compliance with the NEOH Theater group, starting on September 30, we will be requesting proof of vaccination or Covid test negative in the last 72hrs to be able to get in the theater. Thanks for the understanding and cooperation.

This show is for people 14 years/old or older. Esta obra es apta para personas mayors de 14 años.

Sabían que Federico Garcia Lorca escribió a Bernarda en el año 1936, el mismo año en que fue asesinado por sus ideas socialistas y por ser homosexual. La obra es considerada unos de los clásicos del teatro en español. Varios de los temas que se tocan son :

La tirania y la libertad.

La injusticia de la educación sexista y marginación de la mujer.

La injusticia social entre las diferentes clases sociales.

El odio y la envidia.

Esta puesta en escena por LatinUs sera una adaptación en la mano del brillante director John Rivera-Resto.

The play tells the story of a repressive and domineering widow who forces her five unmarried daughters to remain in mourning for their father, sequestered with her on the family estate, for eight years. Frustrated and angry, the women respond in their individual ways to their mother’s cruelty, and the play ends in violence.
