Teatro Luna Announces New Leadership Team
"The only job of the artist is to keep changing," Luis Alfaro, playwright of Victory Gardens' recent success Oedipus El Rey, told a room full of theater practitioners at a recent workshop in Chicago. His words especially resonated with Executive Director and newly minted Ensemble member Alexandra Meda of Teatro Luna, a company whose leadership transitions in recent years have evolved into a new organizational structure infused with lots of new blood. A company which has built its niche in autobiographical and ethnographic ensemble-devised work, Teatro Luna is no stranger to change and responding to challenges on its feet. In that spirit, Chicago's all-Latina theatre company bursts into its 12th season with the induction of a slew of new Latina talent.

The year-long celebration just keeps getting bigger for Chicago's All-Latina Theatre company,' says Managing Director Alex Meda as she announces the addition of two new projects in Teatro Luna's ambitious 10th anniversary season--which in total includes four world-premiere productions, two of which are Luna commissions of Latina playwrights, one ensemble-devised work (GL 2010- produced this past summer), a co-production with Bailiwick Chicago, a remount of 2007's smash hit MACHOS (Be A Man!), and a New Play Festival (LATINAS DO IT WRITE, Summer 2010). Additionally, Teatro Luna's unique training and development program, the Incubation Series, continues with exciting new expansions, including the launch of the third year of the the Lunadas Reading Series, with more plays by Latina/o playwrights from all over the country and beyond, receiving script development workshops and staged readings for a public audience. Also, the second year of the Luna PlayLabs and Directors Lab are joined by the launch of a new laboratory, the Producers Lab. This special new season marks Teatro Luna's 10th anniversary of producing new work and providing opportunities to Latinas both on and off the stage, and showcasing the work of talented Latina professionals from Chicago and across the nation.
