Liana is a new magical realism musical, a coming-of-age story of a young Latina artist finding her voice by reconnecting with her roots and ancestry. Accompanied by a live on-stage band, the show is a heart-pounding musical flight through the lives of an extraordinary artistic family spanning generations and eras. It's a bit of a ghost story, but also a story about resilience in uncertain times and about making when life is hard. The show features an all-original score combining the sounds of flamenco, salsa, Latin jazz and hip-hop.
The cast will feature Helen Hayes award winning mezzo soprano Laura Virella (Liana), extraordinary young soprano Luz Jubiere (Pilar), and NYC and Latin American performers in company roles.
