Staged reading: Aparic=EDon, Written by Tanya Saracho A.

Presented as part of Teatro Luna's artist residency at Galer=EDa de la =20=

Raza, APARIC=CDON is the story of Natalia, a Mexican born Tejana whose =20=

day-to-day life is interrupted by the appearance of an Entity in the =20
corner of her bedroom. Here begins the interplay between the ordinary =20=

and the extraordinary in a small South Texas border town. As Natalia =20
muddles through the complicated relationships in her life - an affair =20=

with her sister's husband, her domineering and class-obsessed Mexican =20=

family, her friendships with a working class Tex/Mex woman and her =20
new neighbor, a transplant from Chicago who is one of the only =20
African-American men in her town - she struggles to bind this Being =20
to her. Her relationship to the Specter is marked by surreal =20
confusion and extended dreams in which Natalia tries to find some =20
meaning in the Spirit, a reprieve from her increasingly unsatisfying =20
life.
