MISSION STATEMENT Teatro Bravo produces plays in English or Spanish that promote a complex portrait of U.S. Latino and/or Latin American populations of Arizona, and also seeks to develop the talents of Latino actors, directors, playwrights, designers, stage managers and administrators. 2009-2010 SEASON Teatro Bravo returns with an all new-play season, the first time we
have produced plays either as world premiere or a second productions.
We are committed to the development of new plays for Phoenix audiences
with a Latina/o bent. Written and Directed by Guillermo Reyes She’s a woman on the verge….Mother Lolita juggles her life
as a devoted mother, a hot lover, and a land lady who defrauds her immigrant
tenants until the façade breaks with unpredictable, and deadly
results. A dark comedy set in the real, apocalyptic post-quake world
of 1994 Los Angeles. First produced off-Broadway at Urban Stages in
New York, this is one of Reyes’ most uproarious plays. Village
Voice: “Reyes’ hilarious new work…is a flamboyant
romp…enthralling…Reyes reveals himself a sharp satirist.”
New York Times: “An efficient laugh machine that chews up many
targets.” A new play by Carlos Manuel The legend of La Llorona, the crying woman of Mexican folklore, haunts
the lives and imagination of a modern young woman, whose child has been
missing for several months, and her family who must cope with the young
woman’s emotional state. By José Cruz González The legendary farm workers' rights advocate grew up in Arizona. This play, employing music and song, tells the story of Cesar Chavez’s early years when he gradually becomes aware of the world of farm workers and the need to organize for better living conditions. A tale for the entire family.
