MALA

2021

By Melinda Lopez

Directed by Penny Metropulos

Featuring Vilma Silva

“Mala is a theatre experience unlike any I have had before. Mala allows us to look at things as individuals even though it is about all of our stories. There is humor, sadness, love, anger, forgiveness, and the understanding of our individual experiences in a collective audience. And that's the magic of this play! Talking with others afterward, I learned that what I'd felt they had, too. We weren't just audience; we were friends.” ~Donna B.

“I, too, have a 92-year old Cuban mother, so the story resonated deep in my soul right away. Even with the pre-show music, I wanted to dance.” ~Alina C.
