ABOUT
WORDS FROM A CUBAN FATHER Mambo, carnival, revolution, Fidel and my dad, Miami, hotdogs, drag queens, the circus, Hollywood, music and dance highlight Cenal’s bilingual experience of being yanked from her native Cuba as a child and yearning to return. The strong presence of her father guides her through the American cultural landscape.
CIRCO DE TU CORAZÓN, delivered in a style evocative of Garcia Marquez’s magical realism, follows a colorful collection of eccentrics who populate a surreal circus lost somewhere in the Americas. JAMES DONLON & ALINA CEÑAL combine their expertise in comedy, movement, mask, improvisation, music and dance, to create beings and creatures of mystery and passion. CIRCO is a bi-lingual experience in Spanish and English where characters perform routines driven by skill, love and yearning. CIRCO was inspired by James Donlon’s many international performance tours to Mexico and Europe, and his four decades experience training fools for the stage, film, and circus.
