The Writers Room Upcoming Events: Teatro en El Verano’s production of La Mancha

Coming Soon!

Teatro en El Verano— La Mancha

This summer, Trinity Rep and Rhode Island Latino Arts (RILA) celebrate the fifth year of Teatro en El Verano, which produces free, family-friendly, EnglishSpanish bilingual productions in Rhode Island parks and community centers. This year’s production marks the premiere of a brand new adaptation of Don Quixote, entitled La Mancha, created specifically with this program in mind. Get to know this timeless Spanishlanguage classic, and first modern novel in European history, in a new way with this free, hour-long, family-friendly bilingual production. Don Quixote is obsessed with the ideas he encounters in books about knights and chivalry, so he sets out on his own adventure with his trusty companion, Sancho Panza. Our hero demonstrates the human capacity to recreate worlds in our own image, while chasing giants that only he can see, and falling into the space between perception and reality. For the full schedule of free performances, visit www.rilatinoarts.org.

Our combination of online and in-person week-long programs have already generated considerable interest and excitement from kids looking to build their skills, flex their creative muscles, and make new friends. Classes are open to everyone, regardless of previous experience, ability, or financial status. Online classes are subject-based and provide focused experiences in areas like directing, improv, storytelling, and more! In-person camps provide opportunities for kids to perform and explore their creativity. Details and registration are available at trinityrep.com/summer.
