Here is some great news from Quiara Alegria Hudes, TheatreNow!’s first guest artist.
Dear friends and colleagues,
In 2006, my play (and proudest piece of writing) Elliot, A Soldier’s Fugue, was produced in New York, directed by Davis McCallum and featuring the outstanding Armando Riesco as Elliot and Zabryna Guevara as Ginny.
The story now continues with the second play in this triolgy. Please join me at Hartford Stage Company in Connecticut for the world premiere of Water By the Spoonful, part two of Elliot’s journey. The role of Elliot will once again be played by Riesco, and Guevara returns, this time as Ginny’s niece, Yazmin. Davis McCallum’s directing looks to be even more engrossing and exciting than last time.
Water By the Spoonful is about addiction, recovery, adoption, and choosing your adult path, all set to John Coltrane’s jazz. It is a large, sprawling piece of work set in Japan, Philly, San Diego, and Puerto Rico. I am very proud of this one.
Here are the details:
