Just Don't Touch me, Amigo will continue the 2010 - '11 season of INTAR's NewWorks Lab.

Just Don't Touch me, Amigo is a comedy about loneliness in which Pedro discovers the alienating process of becoming a resident alien - with passive aggressive New Yorkers, angry bottoms, Latino yuppies, and the MTA. Just Don't Touch me, Amigo will have costume design by Ana Graham, lighting design by Richard Fisher and sound design by David Lawson

Fernando Gambaroni's Off-Broadway credits include Mrs. Farnsworth (Flea Theater and the Long Wharf, New Haven); Like I Say (written and directed by Len Jenkin); Mac Wellman's Cellophane, Birdy and the Golden Putter, Whizzer's Island (Princeton Summer Festival). Film: Solidarity (winner of the Mayor's Award at the Heart of Gold Film Festival in Australia) and Underdogs.

The NewWorks Lab, developed and honed for over a decade, provides an opportunity for Latino playwrights of significant promise to advance their works-in-progress through workshops leading to public presentations. The lab creates a supportive professional environment for playwrights, directors, actors, and other theater artists, encouraging them to experiment, take risks, and collaborate.

INTAR, one of the United States' longest running Latino theatres producing in English, works to:
· Nurture the professional development of Latino theater artists.
· Produce bold, innovative, artistically significant plays that reflect diverse perspectives.
· Make accessible the diversity inherent in America's cultural heritage. Through an integrated program of workshops, productions of works in progress, and mainstage productions, INTAR continues to raise standards of the theater arts. INTAR brings to the public vital and energetic voices of both promising and accomplished Latino theater professionals, replacing stereotypes while giving expression to the diversity and depth of today's Latino-American community.

Performances will be Friday January 28 and Saturday January 29th at 8 PM and Sunday January 30th at 7 PM. Tickets are $5. Performances will take place at INTAR's studio space (500 West 52nd Street, on the 4th Floor). For more information, visit INTAR on the web at www.intartheatre.org .
