The next stage production at the Gertrude Pearlman Theatre in Punta Banda stars two of our very own Nomads: me aka Bajabound2005 and Bajamigo. COME
SEE US!
Here are the details:
Citizen Mendez (Aboard the American Freedom Train), by Jack Shea
Directed by Irka Davis
Set somewhere on the Californian/Mexican border, the play dances among three separate stories on one devastating night. Mayfair and Angel are two
Border Patrol Agents who spend the majority of their nightshifts struggling to stay warm and make each other laugh. Jose and a very pregnant Marta are
a young Mexican couple hiding high in the mountains on their way to freedom. And in the hills, in a physically warm but emotionally cold house, are
Sharon and John, an estranged, self-proclaimed YUPPIE couple.
As the play unfolds, the three stories invade each other creating even more complications as they merge into one tale. Citizen Mendez forces one to
consider how destructive, not descriptive, arbitrary invisible lines can be.
Gertrude Pearlman Theatre, Campo La Jolla
March 22 & 29, 7pm
March 23 & 30, 2pm
$8.00 / 88 pesos per person at the door
$7.00 / 77pesos per person presale
(Presale available March 1st to 21st at Villarino’s Mini Market next to the Post Office in Punta Banda)
