In his latest solo work, ‘El borner brujo’ internationally acclaimed MacArthur fellow Guillermo Gómez-Peña draws from his 30-year-old living archive and combines new and classic performance material to present a unique perspective on the immediate future of the Americas. His self-styled “imaginary activism” invokes performance art as a form of radical democracy and citizenship. This spoken word performance includes multiple cameos by collaborator, Balitronica Gomez. Free tickets can be reserved through the Watson Box Office.

This biannual festival features ten-minute plays written in 48 hours based on a prompt devised by Playwright-in-Residence Charlotte Meehan. The festival is a collaboration between the Creative Writing Program and the Department of Theatre and Dance Studies.
