ABOUT
ESPERANZA RISING is the story of a young girl uprooted, transplanted, and re-grown on alien soil. The glorious, live music of mariachis carries Esperanza across the dividing line that cuts through the center of this play. That line divides two countries, two cultures, and two languages. It also separates Mexico and California, the year 1930 and 1931, and Act One from Act Two. Brought up in the lush and beautiful world of the Mexican aristocracy and then torn away and replanted in the impoverished world a migrant labor camp in California. Esperanza ultimately fulfills the promise of her name. In English with Spanish supertitles. For the whole family.

ABOUT
Men On the Verge of A His-Panic Breakdown
This series of monologues chronicles the lives of various Latino immigrants dealing with transcultural shock of race and gender identity known as the “Hispanic breakdown.” The play is bracketed by the misadventures of the naive Frederico or “The Gay Little Immigrant That Could” who arrives in Los Angeles during the first day of the 1992 riots and believes he’s witnessing the filming of another Lethal Weapon sequel. Other characters include Vinnie, a kept boy being asked to leave the home of his wealthy sugar daddy because he’s turned 30; Edward, a Latino actor passing for Anglo who gets a Latino part and has to deal with his real identity; the Demon Roommate, a lonely young man with an apartment a little too close to the airport; Paco, a Cuban restauranteur who was imprisoned by the Communists in Cuba for being gay and has now been exiled by his right-wing Miami family for the same reason; the Teacher, a stuffy, sexually repressed English-language instructor who abuses his Latino students when they can’t learn properly the “language of Princess Di”; and La Gitana, a drag Flamenco dancer struggling with AIDS as he stages his final performance. ADULTS ONLY.

Words From A Cuban Father and Circo de tu corazón
WHO
Teatro de las Americas and Oxnard College present a double header of theatrical fun with playwright and performer Alina Cenal and director and performer James Donlon
WHEN
Saturday, June 25, 2016 at 8pm and Sunday, June 26, 2016 at 5pm
WHERE
Teatro de las Américas at Oxnard College Black Box Theatre, 4000 S. Rose Ave., Oxnard, CA 93033
ABOUT
WORDS FROM A CUBAN FATHER Mambo, carnival, revolution, Fidel and my dad, Miami, hotdogs, drag queens, the circus, Hollywood, music and dance highlight Cenal’s bilingual experience of being yanked from her native Cuba as a child and yearning to return. The strong presence of her father guides her through the American cultural landscape.
CIRCO DE TU CORAZÓN, delivered in a style evocative of Garcia Marquez’s magical realism, follows a colorful collection of eccentrics who populate a surreal circus lost somewhere in the Americas. JAMES DONLON & ALINA CENAL combine their expertise in comedy, movement, mask, improvisation, music and dance, to create beings and creatures of mystery and passion. CIRCO is a bi-lingual experience in Spanish and English where characters perform routines driven by skill, love and yearning. CIRCO was inspired by James Donlon’s many international performance tours to Mexico and Europe, and his four decades experience training fools for the stage, film, and circus. APPROPRIATE FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY
