This week, Cara Mía Theatre will present a free performance of 'URSULA, or let yourself go with the wind' at Dallas College Richland Campus
After the show, the audience will engage in a post-show conversation.
ABOUT THE SHOW: Ursula tells the journey of Nadia, a 7 year-old, separated from her mother at the US-Mexico border. While Nadia waits for her asylum to be processed, she reflects on the life she left behind in Honduras while reliving the arduous journey to the United States. Through original music, movement and puppets, Ursula speaks to the heart of our shared humanity as audiences experience detention through the eyes of a child trying to make sense of all that is happening around her.

Come visit our current exhibitions "Queer-ltura y Queerpo" and "Someone, Like Me" now through July 13, 2022. "Queer-ltura y Queerpo" brings together the works of eight queer artists and groups in which the body is used as a medium and subject to talk about important socio-political issues amongst the Latinx cultural diaspora. "Someone, Like Me," aims to present artists exploring life and love beyond the gay male gaze. With eight queer femme and non-binary artists working across mediums and cultures, Someone, Like Me gives a view into queerness beyond rainbow capitalism with an alternate view of gender fluidity and queerness being celebrated.
