Four lives, four women, four stories... Teatro Luna proudly presents the world premiere of SÓLO Latinas, a new show that offers four unique stories about cultural and national displacement.  One woman reminisces about love, sex, and the Virgin Mary. Another receives a shocking revelation about her father's true racial identity. A third makes a frantic escape from a stifling marriage to an Americano, and finally, a Cuban woman living under the specter of Fidel Castro comes to terms with her mother, herself, and her grandmother's artificial nalgas. These carefully curated solo shows combine autobiography, oral histories, and the kind of fast-paced energetic irreverence Teatro Luna audiences have come to expect to offer a fresh perspective on Latina women and the contradictions that shape Latina lives.  No se lo pierda!
