Notes:

Original Playwright - Gustavo Ott. Book written by Gustavo Ott; music composed by Mariano Vales; lyrics by Mariano Vales and Gustavo Ott; with English translation by Heather McKay

Synopsis:

his musical comedy, with dark historical underpinnings, follows Eva Peron through her convoluted after-life, as her perfectly preserved corpse is moved from town to town and around the world, setting off political intrigues, public uprisings, secret love-affairs, and mysterious murders. Driven by poetic lyrics and the sensual beats of tango, waltz, and salsa, the show weaves together historical fact and fiction, ultimately revealing the intense love between Evita and the working class and her mesmerizing spiritual power as Argentina's most revered icon.

Notes:

Original Playwright - Gustavo Ott

Synopsis:

Actors Menchu Esteban and Timothy Pabon deliver rapid-fire dialogue in elegantly synchronized performances that go beyond shock to fill us with awe. This black comedy starts light-hearted with a well-heeled, urbanized couple who live in a penthouse overlooking a cityscape that could be in any Westernized nation. Victoria, played with a carefree flamboyance by Esteban, is a television journalist who wants a child; Daniel, played with a laid-back but equally passionate charm by Timothy Pabon, is a lawyer employed in a prestigious law firm, who believes in flying saucers and life in other galaxies. Because this young couple can't trust the randomness and meaninglessness of their lives, they are trying to make love at Victoria's peak point of ovulation, based on their cultural preference for a son. Both are filled with conviction that timing is all, until a mysterious Fed Ex package, a backpack wrapped with rope, arrives from the FBI. From that point on, nothing can ever again be the same. Daniel, who is sort of a male Pandora, switches his obsession from the extraterrestrial to finding out what's in the bag.

Apart from very popular and world touring productions, many performing arts events are largely forgotten about in a matter of months. Traces may remain in various collections, but few collecting agencies, such as libraries, catalogue each flyer or program individually. Hence, unless one knows that an event took place at a certain time in a certain place, tracking down such an event as part of a research project is often a matter of chance. Where research needs to be carried out on high profile and well-documented productions only, this is not a problem. However, both the historian and the analyst will attest that the cultural, political, or sociological context in which a performing arts event takes place is also of major importance, as are the other events that took place in close proximity, either in place or time. A good overview of such productions provides us with a 'social document' that can greatly enhance cultural studies in ways that extend far beyond the narrow confines of theatre history. For instance, data such as this can be used to monitor the health of communities, particularly when used in association with data obtained from other social science disciplines. When one researches a particular playwright one might want to know about all the productions of plays by that author; if one wants to investigate what choices a particular audience had over a period of history and compare this to, say, an ethnic breakdown of the population, one would need to know broadly all the events that took place during that time. If one wanted to do a statistical analysis on the shift in popularity of a genre over one or more generations, it is important to have knowledge of most of the relevant major and minor performance events that took place. In this context, issues of aesthetic quality and the professionalism of a production - which will of course have an impact on such studies - are not the determining factors when deciding to include or exclude events, since all events are the raw material for such research.
