La Razón Blindada
24th STreet Theatre brings back its 2010 hit show, La Razón Blindada (The Armored Reason), written and directed by Teatro Malayerba's acclaimed Arístides Vargas in Ecuador. A play about finding the courage to stand up to oppression, it could not be more timely than it is today! It's literally about standing up to dictators.
This show combines hilarious Kafkaesque role-playing of Cervantes' Don Quijote to help these political prisoners stay sane. It is serious and playful all at once as two political prisoners meet every Sunday to tell each other the story of Don Quixote and Sancho Panza.
Saturdays and Sundays, May 3rd to May 18th, 3 pm and 8 pm.
Preview: April 25th at 8 pm.
Industry Night: May 12th at 8 pm.
