Real Women Have Curves at The Justice Theater Project

April 5-7, and 14 2019. The Justice Theater Project Presents an Advanced Staged Reading of Real Women Have Curves by Josefina Lopez, Directed by Gustavo Schmidt. Set in a tiny sewing factory in East L.A., this is the outrageously funny story of five full-figured Mexican-American women who are racing to meet nearly impossible production deadlines in order to keep their tiny factory from going under. And while they work, hiding from the INS (Immigration and Naturalization Service), they talk... about their husbands and lovers, their children, their dreams for the future. This play, a microcosm of the Latina immigrant experience, celebrates real women's bodies, the power of women, and the incredible bond that happens when women work together. April 5-7th (Friday and Saturday evening shows at 7:30 pm, Saturday Matinee at 2:00 pm, Sunday Matinee at 3:30 pm) at 8208 Brownleigh Drive, Raleigh, NC 27617. April 14th at 6:30 pm at Herbert Young Community Center, 101 Wilkinson Ave, Cary, NC 27513. Price: $15 www.thejusticetheaterproject.org 919-264-7089
