Teatro Luna presents Luna Unlaced

July 6, 2013
8pm

LUNA UNLACED is a new show by America's All-Latina Theatre Company that combines incisive social commentary, episodic storytelling, and an approach modeled after the choose your own adventure books. The ladies of Teatro Luna are breaking the mold and presenting an entertaining evening of hilarity that puts the power straight into the audiences hands- we are giving you a chance to decide the show live from moment to moment! We’ve unpacked, unfettered and unlaced the entire canon of work to bring audiences some of the very best of Luna imbued with our trademark humor when telling our real stories. Through monologues, songs, improv, scenes and poetry, the Ladies of Luna delve into a whole slew of issues ranging from our sexuality, latinidad, adventures in immigrant story archives, unfortunate racist encounters we’ve lived through, and the sometimes self­-induced drama that makes up our lives as "proper latin girls" the USA.
 
Teatro Luna has been called “Theatre that matters” by the New York Times and is America’s only Pan-Latina theatre company producing a full season of work. The Chicago Tribune says that Luna “...wears its Latina cultural specificity with an ease that is both rich and fully American” and that they are “hugely entertaining” by New City. Teatro Luna is currently touring throughout Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, California, Oregon, and New York in preparation for their first appearance at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August with Luna Unlaced.
