Elvia Susana Rubalcava discussed her play, Three Conversations with my Dead Dad. Three Conversations with my Dead Dad is a story about remembrance. Long after her father has passed away, Vero finally unpacks the boxes from her dad’s house, only to find old books, pictures, and memories aren’t the only things spilling out of them. Join us one night only, May 20th, for Wayward Reads in collaboration with Breath of Fire Latina Theater Ensemble- visit our website for tickets and more info!
🎭🎉❤️Next up, hear from director Melanie Queponds. Join us May 20th for Wayward Reads, a staged reading of two new plays from local playwrights Baylee Shlichtman and Elvia Susana Rubalcava in collaboration with Breath of Fire Latina Theater Ensemble.
“These plays speak to the different ways that we as humans take our pasts and try to move forward into the future,” said Melanie Queponds, director of the staged reading. “Both plays touch on how wounds can be passed down from father to daughter, but with such beautiful, opposing tones. I hope that audiences can feel how we are gathering the fire through powerful stories about these women written by two fantastic playwrights.”

It is time to take back our breath and gather the fire that can only be made by a real life community in a post-pandemic world. Breath of Fire began as a space to elevate voices of Latinas/xs/es in and to connect through creative relationships. Let's be reminded of who we are, why we write, and why organizations like Breath of Fire exist.
