CAMPO MATILDO Returning to EXIT Theatre, 7/28-8/13
Campo Maldito, (Spanish for "cursed ground") is a dark comedy about gentrification in San Francisco. When a young CEO of a tech startup - Ken Ingersoll - hires a Santeria priest - Hieronymo Acosta - to purify his office, he gets a lot more than he bargained for. Performed in the heart of the Tenderloin, where the play is set, the production is vivid, frightening, hilarious, and - with rising rent prices and an epidemic of evictions all across the Bay Area - more relevant than ever. This production returns with the original cast Walker Hare and Luis Vega. Since Campo Maldito's premiere, Fisher and Prudencio continued to collaborate on his premiere of Borealis, and Romulus Kilgore's Mobile Happiness Bazaar at La Jolla Playhouse's WoW Festival. Campo Maldito will also be published alongside Bennett Fisher's play Don't Be Evil through Exit Press.
Performances will be at The Exit Theatre (156 Eddy St, San Francisco, CA 94102).
The Production previews on July 28, opens July 29, and runs through August 13. Performances are Thursday and Friday at 8pm, Saturday at 2pm and 8pm. Tickets range from $15-$25
