Renaissance Theatre Company Will Perform LAUGHS IN SPANISH This Month
Performances run March 7-30.
It's Art Basel in Miami, and gallery owner Mari has no art to show! Renaissance Theatre Company (The Ren) presents Laughs In Spanish—part telenovela, part whodunit, and completely over-the-top. This heartfelt and hilarious story is a complicated exploración of family and identity, llena de posibilidades, and set against the vibrant backdrop of Miami.
Welcome to Studio Six Miami, an up-and-coming Wynwood art gallery owned by Mariana (Mari), daughter of legendary movie star Estella. On the morning of Studio Six's biggest night—its highly anticipated Art Basel exhibition—Mari walks into an empty gallery. The exhibit, by artist Marco Diaz, has vanished without a trace! In trying to save her show, Mari is confronted with old wounds when her mother unexpectedly comes to town. Estella, like el “hurracan” she is, swoops in creating a commotion in Mari's life, while trying to escape a mess of her own. Meanwhile, Caro, Mari's friend and aspiring artist, and Juan, Caro's partner and a local police officer, find themselves in a predicament on the quest to put the art show back together. The chisme gets even hotter when Jenny, Estella's assistant and Mari's old boarding school *roommate* shows up to get Estella back on track. Will this chaotic team be able to put aside their personal problems in time for Art Basel?
Get ready for a fast-paced, laugh-out-loud comedy filled with mystery, art, and mucho Miami spice—Laughs In Spanish is a show you won't want to miss!
