Alban's 'Intringulis' Plays the Public Theater 3/26-4/9

LAByrinth Theater Company will present the world premiere of Intríngulis, a new play written and performed by Carlo Alban with direction by David Anzuelo. Intríngulis runs March 26th through April 9th at the Public Theater.

"Novelist, sniper, television personality, delinquent youth. Window washer, tourist, Beelzebub, idealist youth. Vigilante, rock star wannabe, minuteman, apolitical youth. Illegal immigrant. These are the people in your neighborhood. Carlo Alban will inhabit them all, taking the stage in his solo piece Intríngulis," according to press notes. 

"At the heart of the play is the story of Carlo's family and their move from Ecuador to the United States when Carlo was seven – leaving behind four of his older siblings – and their subsequent economic, legal and social battles. Interspersed are performances of 1960s Latin American protest songs, which speak of the political struggles and the hope for social change which have inspired artists around the 
world for decades." 

Carlo Alban is an Ecuadorian-born American citizen by way of California, New Jersey, and "Sesame Street". He has appeared in Jose Rivera's References to Salvador Dali Make Me Hot, John Patrick Shanley's A Winter's Party, and earlier this season, Stephen Belber's A Small Melodramatic Story for LAByrinth. He is perhaps best-known for his six-year stint as "Carlo" on "Sesame Street." His film and TV credits include Strangers with Candy, 21 Grams, "Law & Order," "Touched by an Angel," and "Thicker than Blood." He has been a LAByrinth Company Member since 2002.
