¡FUÁCATA! brings more than 20 Latina women to glorious life on stage by weaving together tales of love, marriage, immigration, and identity.
Actors' Playhouse at the Miracle Theatre reopen its Mainstage series this week with ¡FUÁCATA! or A Latina's Guide to Surviving the Universe, a humorous one-woman tour de force starring Elena María García. The production will play August 18 - September 12, 2021.
¡FUÁCATA! brings more than 20 Latina women to glorious life on stage by weaving together tales of love, marriage, immigration, and identity through eccentric stories and whimsical song. A collaboration between Zoetic Stage artistic director Stuart Meltzer and highly celebrated, three-time Carbonell Award-winning Cuban-American actress Elena María García, ¡FUÁCATA! finds endless humor in what it means to be Latina in today's America, where politicians speak of building walls while tourism booms in Havana.
Originally produced by Zoetic Stage in 2017, the creative team for ¡FUÁCATA! includes Scenic Design by Michael McKeever, Lighting Design by Rebecca Montero, Original Sound Design by Anton Church, and Production Stage Management by Amy Rauchwerger.
