“…merry Pastorela reflects the spirit of Tucson…”
—The Tucson Weekly
Join us once more for a cherished Tucson family tradition for the Sweet 16th time!
Once again shepherds, dog and sheep march towards Belen to witness the nativity. What are Lucifer and his minions planning this time? Will Glorious Michael and Cool Gabriel be able to save the travelers from the eternal haboob, or roasting in Phoenix-like heat? The fun continues with lovely Christmas carols in Spanish and English accompanied by Gertie & the T.O. Boyz rocking Waila band! Piñatas for the niños after every show!

AGNES UNDER THE BIG TOP: a tall tale
written by Aditi Brennan Kapil
directed by Barclay Goldsmith
“Rich in feeling, wide in scope, teeming with poetry…”
—The New York Times
A National New Play Network Rolling World Premiere, and Recipient of the National Endowment for the Arts’ 2009 Distinguished New Play Development Project
Five vibrant souls redefine themselves in their new world against the subterranean rhythms of a subway train! Funny and powerful, this new play explores the intersecting lives of Agnes, a Liberian homecare worker, a Bulgarian ringmaster and his wife, an Indian call center escapee, and an itinerant transit busker.

LIDLESS
written by Frances Ya-Chu Cowhig
directed by Eva Tessler
“If Henrik Ibsen had been alive in the era of Guantanamo,
he’d surely have written a play every bit as scintillating as Lidless..”.
—The Scotsman, August 2010
Winner of the Yale Drama Series Award for Playwriting in 2009
A searingly poetic and incisively political play that explores the nature of trauma, the conflicting eroticism and brutality of violence, and the blurry line between revenge and redemption — It has been fifteen years since Alice served in the U.S. Army at Guantánamo Bay and she has successfully reinvented herself and suppressed all memories of her prior life, living contentedly with her husband and teenage daughter. Until Bashir, a Pakistani Muslim, shows up at Alice’s flower shop and asks for an unusual request. His visit sets into motion a series of visceral and spiritual encounters among six characters whose lives will be forever connected and defined by a single act of inhumanity.

Welcome to our 25th Season committed again to presenting new border plays and new or esetablished border voices. In searching for an encompassing title, we are reminded of Eric Wolf's famous book, Sons of the Shaking Earth (1962), in which he recounts the ancient prophecies of Middle America (Mexico/Guatemala). These prophecies forecast five great cataclysmic periods of time. Now, as we ourselves currently face the fifth of these great time periods, we ask, do our productions, as they reflect our current historical moment, parallel at least in metaphor the prophecies of the original Sons of the Shaking Earth? Beyond reflecting our own tumultuous times, we are proud of our 25th Anniversary season not only because all our plays are new works, but also because they embrace borders- stretching beyond to collaborations both nationally (PROP Theatre, Chicago) and internationally (El Circulo Teatral, Mexico City) - and finally, all are penned by emerging or established Arizona and Southwestern playwrights. Enjoy!
