Synopsis
Once A Blue Moon – Cada Luna Azuldirected by DE Founder Stacy Klein.
Previews: July 15Performances: July 16-August 2Thursdays – Sundays, plus Wednesday July 22 at 7:30PM.
The performance is based on lead actor and cultural strategist Carlos Uriona’s past experience with military dictatorship and cultural rebellion in his native country Argentina. Once a Blue Moon returns Carlos to Agua Santa, a fictional version of his hometown, after many years in exile. He evokes the memories of his past and the stories of the town’s colorful inhabitants as well as the events leading to his departure. The story reflects an increasingly present-day and universal situation in which ‘progress’ and ‘power’ displaces people, in this case causing a flood. It is a story of memory, culture, and song. We presented a version of this performance in our 2015 / 2016 season and are looking forward to re-examining this work 10 years later and creating it anew with our current company.
