UNO Works features new work in development from local and BC artists. This year's edition is curated by Mercedes Bátiz-Benét.

A Distancia

Created & performed by Regina Rios

A Distancia is a one woman show that explores the immigrant experience and the unexpected consequences that come with it. Through a comical and heartfelt exploration of a girl's coming of age, themes of identity, belonging, and prejudice arise. A quick journey through Mexico, The United States and Canada brings endless discoveries, but also questions that perhaps cannot be answered.

La Mujer Fragmentada (working title)

Created & performed by Maria Escolan

La Mujer Fragmentada (working title) is a bilingual performance piece exploring historic and current violence and forced migration in El Salvador. Through a collaborative multidisciplinary and bilingual devising process, the piece uses projection, dynamic titling, and video editing to explore these themes. Drawing on the histories and lives of Salvadoran women inside and outside my own family, I seek to draw connections across time and geography, giving presence to experiences otherwise left al olvido. The experiment of La Mujer Fragmentada is an attempt to remember historic/contemporary colonial ruptures – from one’s self, one’s land, and one’s family.

Tickets for this double-bill are by donation, with a suggested $10 donation.
