Magic World Premiere Aztlan by Luis Alfaro


Aztlan

By Luis Alfaro

Directed By Kinan Valdez

MacArthur Genius Award Winner Luis Alfaro returns to work with Campo Santo and the Magic Theatre!

The success of his last world premiere here- The Travelers- is still resonating: Theatre Bay Area Glickman Award for Best New Play; accolades from the Los Angeles Times and more for the production in Los Angeles; and most recently featured and published in American Theatre Magazine.  The amazingly talented author of Oedipus El Rey and countless more epic plays is creating his next world premiere here- Atzlán.  This play is a journey back to the mytho/spiritual/geographic home of Aztlán- and operates at once in mythology of Goddesses and God and simultaneously in the reality of Highway 99, the droughts, the prisons. This road play follows Aztlán in the fight to keep away the underworld darkness in ourselves, our families, and our lineage. This play also marks the return of Sean San José to the Magic stage.

Directed by Kinan Valdez of El Teatro Campesino

featuring: Campo Santo's Juan Amador, Catherine Castellanos, Daniel Duque-Estrada, Gabriela Maldonado Pelayo, Sean San José, Ogie Zulueta
