Radio Aluna Teatro

"Would you still love me if I had a really dark thing inside of me?"   Welcome to the Studio Series: experiments in audio storytelling from some of the most exciting theatre artists from our TransAmerican community in Canada. First you’ll hear a work in process, then a short talk by the artist on their creative process.    DiablaDivina is about a young girl (Niña) and her tumultuous relationship with the Virgin Mary (Maria). Maria guides Niña through her memories to shed light on Niña's shame filled past. Niña learns that there is more to Maria than the woman who lives in the painting in her bedroom. Content Warning: Mature Content, Physical and Sexual Abuse.   J & A Collective is founded by multidisciplinary artists Jeysa Caridad and Adriana Moraes-Mendoza. They create and share original, culturally inspired stories engaged by female narratives. As a collective, they were residents of Factory Theatre’s Foundry where they completed the first draft of their co-written play, DiablaDivina. This piece
