Teremoto/EarthQuake is a festival of workshops, poems, plays and music by diverse voices of Latin American countries and of Latinx in the U.S., each considering an element - Fire, Air, Earth, Water, Tech or Waste – and how this element gives life to or destroys their world. Plays, monologues, poems, and songs bring us to settings like the underground rivers of Buenos Aires, the waterways of the Amazon, the Brazilian savannah, the streets of Mexico City and a medical waste facility in Vernon, California, introduce us to Mozambican Brazilian, Latinx and Argentine and Venezuelan poets and characters like a Tupi Hades, a Nahuatl fire eater, a burning California redwood, and a Mexican actor stuck in a tree-planting performance gone wrong. Together, the voices of Latin America will bring us into the heart of nature, move us and unite us in finding what is most elemental to our existence. Can the Earth move you? Join the EarthQuake and find out!
