LORCA-Living The Experience, features performances by renowned actresses Rebeca Alemán, Ana Santos, Kris Tori, the rising Teresa Echeveste, and the special appearance of the Venezuelan actress, Carlota Sosa.
Our return to in-person theater unites what we have created in these 20 years of history and what we have learned throughout the pandemic.
The actresses will share the stage with Camilo Rasquin, Andrea Salcedo, and Diego Salcedo, renowned musicians from the city of Chicago.
LORCA, Living the Experience, is a show that highlights the protagonists of Federico García Lorca‘s plays: The Prodigious Woman of the Shoemaker, Doña Rosita the Spinster, Blood Wedding, The House of Bernarda Alba, Yerma, and Mariana Pineda.
Through video mapping, the poet and his characters become immersed in an atmosphere filled with flamenco music written and composed by Lorca through heel tapping, piano, guitar, and voice. Through these female voices and his music, Lorca speaks to the audience about free will, profound pain, passionate love, imprisoned blood, the absence of hope, and ultimately revealing the profound meaning of freedom.
