The lives of two women from very different worlds collide in the illusionary paradise of a Mexican resort. Sarah, a Canadian wedding guest, is a shot glass half empty. Adriana, a fastidious and vivacious hotel floor manager, finds solace in establishing order. At first glance, they're simply animated, but looking closer reveals the anxieties they're trying to hide. When their worlds collide, everything they've kept hidden comes into sharp focus.
A bilingual play in English and Spanish, each woman speaks in her own language and shares her unique experiences directly with the audience. Their vastly different realities are reflected in parallel, coming together to mirror and magnify a mutual pain. Through nuanced and surprisingly funny monologues, Quintana and Zelaya-Cervantes focus an attentive microscope on female strength and solidarity to stunning effect.
Mexican playwright, screenwriter, director, and translator Paula Zelaya-Cervantes graduated from UBC in Vancouver, Canada, with a double major in Theatre and Honours English Literature thanks to the support of the International Leader of Tomorrow Scholarship granted to only thirteen students worldwide each year. Paula has written and directed several plays including The Orbweaver/El Hilador (Teatro Hel?nico 2018, Mexico City; Vancouver Fringe Festival International Mainstage Selection, 2016) and 245 Acts of Unspeakable Evil, which she co-wrote with Ana Gonz?lez Bello and which won the Latino National Playwright Award granted by the Arizona Theatre Company and the Sharon Enkin Play for Young People Award granted by the Playwright's Guild of Canada. Paula has adapted and translated close to thirty plays, several of which she has also directed.
