About Notes on Killing Seven Oversight, Management and Economic Stability Board Members
Early one morning, Lolita, a young Boricua trans woman, arrives at a suspicious (let’s say evil) Wall Street office with a mission: to take down all seven members of the Puerto Rico Oversight, Management and Economic Stability Board. Much to her surprise, the receptionist who welcomes her has, more than a story to tell, a show to put on. A revenge saga giving existential drag extravaganza, Mara Vélez Meléndez’s subversively funny play takes aim at the unelected officials who think they know what’s best for the people—and for our own bodies—and the elected ones who appoint them.
Production support for Notes on Killing Seven Oversight, Management and Economic Stability Board Membersis provided by Yale’s Binger Center for New Theatre.
