University Street Fair - May 21st/May 22nd

There are so many things to do this weekend and you can find them on the Seattle Announcements Calendar (867 events listed for May as of today)! I love the University Street Fair and I always seem to be caught off guard when it arrives.  I enjoy seeing vendors that have been there for years and the new ones that are there for their first time.  It is just a fun event that gets better each year.  Ms T.
  

Electricidad, Directed by Rose Cano May 20-21st at ACT

If you know Danielle Villegas, you know she is passionate about Latino theater and theater in general.  This weekend we have the opportunity to support Latino Theater with a performance of Electricidad, directed by Rose Cano, an old friend of Danielle's.  Live theater is a great way to support the arts and has that intimate feeling.


Electricidad
May 20-21, 2011 at 7:30pm
In The Bullitt Cabaret,

700 Union Street
(intersection of 7th & Union) 
Running Time: 1 hours, 50 minutes

A new kind of Greek Tragedy.  Where the South Side Locos are Kings and Spanglish rules.

A Chicano take on the Greek tragedy Electra, Luís Alfaro's Electricidad is a brutally modern adaptation of the classic revenge saga set within gang culture of the 'barrio'. One of the foremost Latino playwrights in the U.S. and winner of the MacArthur 'Genius Award', Luís Alfaro's eye-opening rendition situates the iconic characters in the present-day world of the 'Cholo' where the South Side Locos are Kings and Spanglish rules. Electricidad is mourning her father's body in her front yard, much to the dismay of the vecinos (neighbors) and her mother Clemencia, who was rumored to have had him killed to establish her power in the gang hierarchy. A comical bilingual chorus called 'El Chisme' gossips and tries to save their barrio from inevitable cycles of violence.

eSe Teatro's presentation of Electricidad is a blend between a staged reading and a fully produced play, presented in Spanglish.

You can also see this play May 26th, 6:30pm at South Park Community Center, as part of the Seattle Youth Violence Prevention Initiative.
