Proyecto Latina Presents - DAWN TERRY HERRERA

PROYECTO LATINA PRESENTS DAWN TERRY HERERRA


Monday, August 18 from 7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. @ Radio Arte 1401 W. 18th St.
(Use Side Door On 18th)

Dawn Herrera Terry is a lover of words--their sounds, their meanings and the spaces between them. A Teatro Luna Artistic Associate, Dawn presented her solo play Portales as part of the Oye/Listen! series and acted in the probadita presentation of Machos at San Antonio's Guadalupe Cultural Arts Center. Dawn also works with Stillpoint Theater and with BESITOS (Bilingual Education Students Interacting to Obtain Success) at Kansas State University to develop community-written and performed shows that put everyday truths on stage. Most recently, she co-created Walkabout Theater's War Garden, a family-friendly show about conflict and vegetables that toured to community gardens across Chicago. She is a former writer and director with the Manhattan Experimental Theater Workshop.

Dawn will present poems from her work in progress, "Rosas Encendidas." For this chapbook project, Dawn is translating love poems written over the past seven years, from Spanish to English and from English to Spanish. The poems are intricate, dreamlike and passionate explorations of past lives and loves--chisme boxes in themselves! The title of the chapbook comes from the ranchera "Los Laureles," a mariachi standard and the one Dawn always requests second, after "Volver."

¡Ay, qué laureles tan verdes!
¡Qué rosas tan encendidas!
Si piensas abandonarme mejor quitame la vida;
Alza los ojos a verme
Si no estás comprometido.

Proyecto Latina is a monthly open mic bringing together the best emerging
and established Latinas poets, writers and is collaboration
between Tianguis Bookstore, Teatro Luna and MARIPOSA ATOMICA INK.
