Teatro Vivo will present Verano en Vivo, an intimate 2-weekend bilingual showcase of compelling new works staged by Austin Latino theatre mainstays working alongside up-and-coming visionaries.
Two Souls and a Promise and Crossing the Rio by Rupert Reyes directed by Rob Rowland - One week end only - Aug 27-30
All performances are Thurs Sat 8 pm Sunday 2 pm
Hosted by the Emma S. Barrientos Mexican American Cultural Center 2 Souls & a Promise and Crossing the Rio, two one-act comedies written by Teatro Vivo's artistic director, Rupert Reyes and directed by up and coming Austin theatre and film artist, Rob Rowland. As Austin's premier Latino theatre company, Teatro Vivo has crafted a unique theatre experience for this summer's showcase. By combining the spontaneous energy of workshop-inspired performances with creative minimalist staging methods, the experience will highlight the vibrant characterization and provocative voices of these original scripts that delve into lost histories of the Prohibition era, star-crossed family legacies that float in a realm of magical realism, and the ever-evolving complexities of life and love on the border. The company's mission to empower emerging voices in Austin's theatre scene will resonate onstage as these compelling new works open our minds and refresh our imaginations in the midst of our mighty Texas summer.
