Description:

Teatro Vista announces Equity and Non-Equity auditions for the Midwest premiere of HOPE: PART II OF A MEXICAN TRILOGY by Evelina Fernandez directed by Artistic Director, Ricardo Gutierrez.

ABOUT THE PLAY
HOPE: Part II of A Mexican Trilogy is a grand exploration of Mexican American life in the 60's at the dawning of that transformational era. The show follows the voyage of the Morales family through the turbulent time that was marked by a new young president, sexual revolution and the rock 'n' roll explosion. Filled with nostalgic ballads, fantasy sequences and healthy doses of humor, HOPE creates keen visual and storytelling elements.
