Photos: CARLOTA: ALHAJERO DE SECRETOS is Now Playing at The Los Angeles Theatre Center

Latino Theater Company is welcoming the return of San Jose-based LGBTQ+ ensemble Teatro Alebrijes with “Carlota: Alhajero de Secretos” (“Carlota: Jewelry Box of Secrets”), a bold reimagining of Federico García Lorca's “The House of Bernarda Alba.” Performances began last weekend at The Los Angeles Theatre Center, continuing through May 24. Check out photos below!

Inside the home of Carlota and her three daughters, time seems to have stood still. But their cloistered world is suddenly shaken when the youngest daughter encounters a handsome stranger in town for his father’s funeral. What follows is a cascade of revelations as long-buried secrets emerge — like precious jewels hidden inside a jewelry box. Part  melodrama and part comedy, “Carlota: Alhajero de Secretos” is all corazón. All performances are in Spanish with English supertitles.

Co-written and co-directed by Rodrigo García and Ugho Badú, the cast features Ugho Badú, Janvier Berber-Acosta, Adrian Campos, Ricardo Cortés, Sergio Dávila, Jose Martinez, Carolina Perez and Yatzil Ruiz.
