Performances will run 10/25/2024 - 11/10/2024.
The cast has been revealed for 'Stoneheart' by playwright Georgina Escobar, presented by Camino23 Collective, a latinx theater collective at the Latino Theater Company Encuentro 2024. This collaboration, coming from San Diego and Tijuana to Los Angeles, is dedicated to promoting authentic and respectful Latino representation in the arts.
"Stoneheart" is a powerful deconstructed Western that explores societal constructs of femininity and class through the lens of Birdie Zermani. As her mind deteriorates, our aging matriarch is launched into a fabula of history and myth revealing a parallel deterioration of a family and a society in Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua in the 1980s. Persecution, forbidden love, curses, rattlesnakes, suicide come together in a visceral family drama where the Zermanis are forced to cope with the death of their legacy amidst the rise of a new generation of 'society's finest.'
Under Daniel Jáquez's visionary direction, this production promises to captivate audiences with its heartfelt storytelling and dynamic performances.
