 WORLD PREMIERE

THEY CALL ME A HERO

by Guillermo Reyes

Based on A Memoir by Daniel Hernandez

Directed by Barclay Goldsmith 

 

 A shooting rampage in Tucson creates international headlines as Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords becomes one of the victims. Daniel Hernandez, a young intern, comes to her aid, and helps save her life. This unexpected hero is thrown into a whirl-wind of publicity. As his private life becomes public, Daniel's family provides the backbone that empowers him.  Daniel's story highlights the life affirming values that help  our community  commemorate, reflect and heal.

ABSENCE/EL AUSENTE

by Victor Hugo Rascon Banda. Translated by Caridad Svich

Directed by Eva Tessler & Victor Carpinteiro

 

In this drama by one of Mexico's most prolific and widely produced playwrights, three generations of a Mexico City family endure the absence of a son, husband, and father who has left for the United States in search of work. As the family's situation deteriorates, a sighting of their absent loved one catapults the play  to its surprising ending. PERFORMANCES ALTERNATING BETWEEN ENGLISH AND SPANISH.
