Farhad is a fifteen-year-old girl on the outskirts of Kabul who disguises herself as a boy to blend in a world where being a man is almost as being divine. She encounters herself in a difficult predicament, and chants to her God in a lament. The Journey of the Shadow, as his author estates, is “ a story for children and for those adults who take delight in the remnants of innocence”. This magical tale takes us through the journey of Marcelo Miguel, an eight-year-old boy who decides to write a letter to his father, a soldier fighting in Afghanistan. Nilo Cruz gets to the core of two souls in search of truth and unconditional love. Two young souls who have encountered pain and, courageously, defy destiny. Directed by Nilo Cruz and Andy Señor.

HOST is an all-male work that explores power, authority, control, isolation, and desire. Within these paths, the word ‘host’ emerges as both sexualized territory as well as a bodily struggle. ‘Host’ is a word that is especially layered in the queer community, where one word is so weighted by both history and its digital presence – host of a dinner party, host of a game show, host to an orgy, host to a virus…

Camille A. Brown / Black Girl: Linguistic Play
2016-02-20 20:00 - 22:00 | MDCA Mid-Stage Theatre, 2901 West Flagler St, Miami, FL, 33135, United States
Using the rhythmic play of double-dutch, steppin’, tap, ring shout and other African-American social dances, dancer/choreographer Camille A. Brown addresses the complexity of carving out a positive identity as a black female in urban American culture. In a society where black women are often only portrayed in terms of their strength, resiliency, or trauma, this performance represents a more nuanced spectrum of black womanhood in a racially and politically charged world. Brown, who danced with the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, Ronald K. Brown’s Evidence, and Rennie Harris’ Pure Movement, has been hailed as “Gutsy. Wild. Smart. Original,” by Dance Magazine. Miami debut.

Alguna Cosita Que Alivie el Sufrir de René R. Alomá
2016-02-07 17:00 - 19:00, 2016-02-04 20:30 - 2016-02-06 20:30 | MDCA On.Stage Black Box Theatre, 2901 West Flagler St, Miami, FL, 33135, United States
El exilio, ese plato agridulce aderezado por las nostalgias de los que se van y la añoranza de los que se quedan, implica logros y renuncias, beneficios y sacrificios, ilusión y resignación. Y sobrellevarlo, como una herida que sigue abierta a través del tiempo, precisará para siempre la búsqueda de alguna cosita que alivie el sufrir.

Antigonón by Rogelio Orizondo
2016-01-31 17:00 - 18:30, 2016-01-31 14:00 - 15:30, 2016-01-29 20:30 - 2016-01-30 20:30 | MDCA On.Stage Black Box Theatre, 2901 West Flagler St, Miami, FL, 33135, United States
This epic work, Antigonón by Rogelio Orizondo, directed by Carlos Díaz, departs from the myth of Antigone to fuse with old and new heroes of Cuban history. All these myths, and particularly the myth of renowned poet José Martí, considered the founder of Cuban revolutionary thought, join in the Greek tragic chorus to serve up a remix of frustrations and demands placed upon the bodies of the performers. Between derision and poetry, between travesty and reality, the spectacle becomes the mirror of a society that maintains a strained relationship with the past and its own history.
