Fall Is So Busy... I'm Going To Fall Over
I'm bringing it to the masses. Or, at least, the tourists! Check me out as part of Navy Pier's Hispanic Heritage Month Celebrations. I'll be performing a set at 3pm on Sunday, September 23rd. I'm supposed to do all my most upbeat material... ja ja ja. What shall it be... genocide or civil war? Thank G to the O-D that I have been writing my solo show, full of embarassing stories about being 12 years old and culturally confused. What do Run DMC and Steak-um tamales have in common? ME! But for real... I would love to see people there. I'm performing with the esteemed poet David Hernandez and an exciting surprise guest... meaning, they didn't tell me who the third person is.
I can barely ride a bike. But I support people who do!
I'm performing at the World Bicycle Relief Benefit on October 6th, at 7pm. I am by far the least famous person on the line-up, which includes Carlos Cumpian, Raul Nino and other MARCH/Abrazo poets. Admission is a pay-what-you-can donation. At the Heartland Cafe, 7000 N. Glenwood.
I learned about sex from the Gringos next door.
Yup. Teatro Luna's hit show S-e-x-Oh! is back for Hispanic Heritage Month. I don't like the term "hispanic" but I do like the opportunity to dust off my pink accessories and hit the stage with the girls. We're performing all around "town"... for FREE. Don't miss this hilariously honest show about sexuality, nationality, and Trader Joe's.
October 8th @ Northwestern University
October 12th @ University of Madison
October 22 @ University of Chicago
Machos open November 8th... but you can catch a sneak preview.
On October 17th we're presenting a staged reading of Machos at Columbia College. FREE. As part of their FOCO Festival of Latino/a Arts.
I'm a terrible personal publicist and don't have further info about ANY of these event, but you can e-mail me at coya@coyapaz.com and I promise to find out more!
AND, AS ALWAYS... PROYECTO LATINA is the THIRD MONDAY of EVERY Month!!!!! I'll be there with bells on... trying out new stuff and reading from the chisme box. 7pm @ Tianguis Books, 2003 S. Damen
