La Peña presents the world premiere of "Raw-Dios: Behind the Pigpen in the Morning". Directed by Lakin Valdez. Starring: Luis "Xago" Juárez, Mona Webb, Rosa González, and Tommy Shepherd. The play takes us into the pop cultural landscape of the "Shock and Awe" era, when the U.S. began bombing Iraq and Americans were bombarded with commercial distractions and blind vengeance. Four working class listeners with their own intertwining stories of vengeance are inspired by a raunchy radio DJ when he suddenly breaks with the corporate script only to be thrown up against an unflinching power structure. Raw-Dios is a story of struggle over control of the airwaves and their power to affect human consciousness.
Check out the rest of the line-up for our week long 10th Annual Hecho en Califas Festival.
