Description: Theater&… is a series of presentations by seniors in the Program in Theater that demonstrates the power of theater to connect to, reveal, educate about, and share a wide range of issues, topics, and experiences. Join Princeton seniors and fellow audience members for these unique one-night only explorations. Reading of Amapola, an original Flamenco pop musical by Princeton senior Zach Lee. Albuquerque, New Mexico is colloquially known as the Flamenco Capital of North America. In Amapola, Lee examines how a musician might respond to being introduced to a new musical genre and how that changes their musical identity and expression. Amapola follows its protagonist, Buskboy, who quickly wraps himself up in a lie as he attempts to woo his new friend, Sofía. As their relationship evolves, Buskboy’s music matures and his lies deepen. The show balances themes of love and deception, set to the vibrant Flamenco landscape of Albuquerque.
