Blackout Theatre Company proudly presents the world premiere of Santa Beva, a hilarious new comedy by New Mexican playwright Leonard Madrid. Beva Romero is a Bareleña whose life turns upside-down when she suddenly starts performing miracles. She is visited by two rude angels, in the guise of her two favorite cousins, who inform her that she's going to be a saint. The play is about self-acceptance, New Mexican culture, and the unbreakable bond of primos. Parental discretion advised for mild adult language and rude humor. Santa Beva runs June 5-21 at CNM's Coal Avenue Theatre, Fridays and Saturdays at 7:00 PM and Sundays at 6:00 pm. All tickets are Pay-What-You-Will, with a suggested price of $10. A kickoff gala will take place June 4 at Tractor Brewing - Wells Park.
Starring Rachel Sedillo as Beva, Isa Michellie as Chinche, and Llevi Sáenz-Tafoya as Tóne. Written by Leonard Madrid; directed by A. Yourd. Production team: Emma Ziegler, Chey Parson, Dani Belvin, Jordyn Palma, Erick Bojorquez Melendez, Santiago Chacon, Bee Cotton, Amber Olsen, and Gavin Barrera. Proudly produced by Blackout Theatre and developed through Blackout's First Leap New Works Program.
