Amphibian Stage presents workshop of
DE TROYA
a new play
by Caridad Svich (2012 OBIE for Lifetime Achievement)
Directed by David Lozano
A mysteriously wounded girl washes on shore and meets young Mara on the riverbank. Worried sisters Lupe and Lena wonder if tonight is the night that their niece will disappear without a trace? Nostalgic Horacio drives his restless grandson away with another rambling story from his childhood. Boiling under the surface of a violent city, two families wrestle with rebellion, regret, and loss of faith. De Troya is a beautifully mythical story about how the weight of our memories can create an insatiable longing for salvation.
On May 15-16, 2016
at Amphibian Stage
