FREE Sneak Peek Preview on Monday, February 8th at 7:30pm
Dallas Children’s Theater (DCT) presents ONE special FREE public performance of an enchanting bilingual play, Señora Tortuga, part of DCT’s Student Matinee Performance Series, at El Centro College Theater, Monday, February 8, 2010 at 7:30pm.
Young Pedro and his family make their home in a barn on the Mexican border. Pedro complains of having nothing and brings his mother many headaches. She invites a hungry woman to share the family dinner once, but the Señora returns time and again to eat and tell fantastical stories of the Enchanted Serpent and Cucuy of Mexican legend, filling Pedro’s nights with heroic, yet frightening dreams. Surprisingly, Pedro is learning from these wisdom tales, but his mother is suspicious of the Señora until it is revealed that Señora Tortuga holds the thread that ties their past dreams to their future.
Most enjoyed by youth in grades 1 through 5.
