Los Espectaculocos - rehearsal photos

San Cristobal de las Casas, Chiapas

I met half of the people in these photos for the first time on March 11th, when they arrived to take a Teatro Fisico performance workshop that I taught in the stunning new theatre of LaFOMMA, Fortaleza de la Mujer Maya.





Four days later they performed like a cohesive group to the delight of the general public, the women of FOMMA & certainly myself. Thank you Elizabeth, Fernanda, Gabriela, Luisa, Manon, Luis & Rafael. Thank you to the women of FOMMA & Doris Difarnacio of Instituto Hemisferico.

Sister Warriors at Poncho's Stencil Art Exhibit







There were 3 Sister Warriors who captured the King & banished him, crown first, at the opening of Poncho's art exhibit at FOMMA: Gabriela Ottogalli, a superb, flaming, red-headed Argentinian performance force; Rossi who works at the Internet Cafe in FOMMA; & myself. I don't know the photographer's name, but the accordion player is Kata from Quebec, who plays with the San Cristobal de las Casas band Fractal. The art is Poncho's stencil art.
