w/ Teatro Vivo and Canopy Theatricals at the MACC, ATX
November 14-24
A young man joins the military to become a man. Or to meet men. Or both. A young woman joins the military to carry her weight, and overcome men. Or to carry a man’s weight and come with him. Or both. Through the Latinx lens, Teatro Vivo and Thinkery & Verse explore sexuality and gender dynamics in the military. Produced with Canopy Theatricals as a part of the Austin Veterans Arts Festival, with financial support from ART SPARK TEXAS.

AFTERSHOCK / LA RÉPLICA is a world premiere stage-play that explores new dimensions of Latinx military service.
​

The Latinx soldiers and citizens in this play expect military service to reinforce their identity and ideas about family, patriotism, and even sexuality, but the military is often a place that mixes up the moral compass, and one’s sense of self, and invents a new identity.

The script draws on first-person narratives, interviews, archival sources, Latinx poetry, veteran writings, rumors, legends, and some of the best ATX imaginations. Thinkery & Verse, Teatro Vivo, Canopy Theatre, and ArtSpark are proud to be a part of the Austin Veteran Arts Festival - AVAFest at the Emma S. Barrientos Mexican American Cultural Center. Austin's only theater venue located in the lightning hot Rainey Street district.
