BREAKDOWN
[CAMILA] Late 30’s, quick and expressive. She is a ball of energy. She heads the Latin American Department at a major New York City auction house.
[JUAN] Mid 60’s, sincere and gentlemanly. He is in charge of the warehouse operations.
[MARGARET] late 60’s, elegant and a classic. No-nonsense but warm and very smart. She is Camila’s direct superior.
[ROMAN] Mid 50’s, thin and unimposing, but piercing in his own way. He is an independent art dealer
[LOUIS] Mid 50’s, brash but very charming when he wants to be. His opinion is always his favorite in any room. He is the president of the auction house.
[MARTA] Mid 70’s, a classic communist bureaucrat. She is always calm and doesn’t like to be questioned. Pedantic in her stillness.
Story line:
Amidst cut-throat competition at a renowned auction house, Camila has just been promoted as the head of the Latin American Art Department when she is presented with one of her great-aunt Amelia Pelaez's paintings as a last-minute inclusion. The authenticity of the painting is questionable, Camila's dedication to her great Aunt is not, forcing Camila to decide between her own burgeoning career and Amelia's legacy. Written by Cuban-American playwright and Miami native Carmen Pelaez, this exciting world premiere thrusts us into the world of high stakes art dealing, Cuban politics, and a thrilling pursuit for the truth. Absent from Miami stages since her extended run of Rum and Coke at the Coconut Grove Playhouse, Ms. Pelaez will also star in the new play.
