Performances: Oct 17-Nov 3 (Thurs-Sun) - Carsen Theatre at the Dairy Arts Center (address is 2590 Walnut St., Boulder, CO 80302)
Paola Aguilar (Late 30s, Mexican) A Doctor of Latinx Studies who teaches at a local Colorado college. She wants to be a mom but life hasn’t made that available yet. Hyper-intelligent and empathetic to a fault. Has regrets and the boundaries to match.
Nicola Ramirez (30s, White with a Cuban father) A not-so-closet nerd. She is - upon further investigation - way more neurotic than you could ever imagine. Has yet to come out as Latina. According to her Instagram she’s doing just fine.
Bernard Robinson (30s, Black) grew up with money in Texas. Went to SMU. Has far too often been someone’s “black friend.” He is obsessed with early Garth Brooks. Wants to be president one day.
Rebecca Feldman (late 20s, Jew-“ish”) grew up in New York City. Speaks Spanish fluently and can’t wait to tell you how she “estudiar en Venezuela.” Got one question wrong on her SAT and she knows which one. Fancies herself a human rights activist AND a centrist. She is so proud to call herself an “ally.”
Kaj Lutken (30s, White) the kind of person who didn’t get that Wolf of Wall Street was a satire. Is hyper concerned with cancel culture and is currently working on an op-ed about the whole thing. He is the epitome of ambition and, trust me, he sleeps waaaaay less than you do.
TRACK 1 (Hispanic/Latino/Latina/Latinx/Latine) – Doubles as various people throughout the play. They and we are not a monolith. And they get to have fun in acting out various examples of a diaspora. Clowning experience a plus. But legit they can be any age, gender, whatever.
