Teatro Vivo Presents Cura On the Border of Sin and Salvation Austin Playwright Raul Garza
AUSTIN, Texas, August 23, 2012 Teatro Vivo presents "Cura", written by Raul Garza and directed by Estevan "Chuy" Zarate.
Performances take place Sept. 13 - 29, Thursdays Saturdays at 8 p.m. at the Salvage Vanguard Theater, 2803 Manor Rd, Austin, TX 78222.

Synopsis of Cura: Cura explores what happens when faith is tested to its limits. In a small Texas border town in 1938, a humble, defeated woman of faith, Amparo, encounters both spiritual hope and crisis in a young man who may or may not be the legendary Curandero/Saint, El NiƱo Fidencio. The Spanish word "cura" means both "cure" and "priest."
Cura has strong language and is for mature audiences. About the Playwright: Raul Garza's first full-length play, "Fantasmaville," received the 2007 National Latino Playwriting Award.

When not writing plays, Raul teaches yoga, fills up on pop culture and serves as co-founder and creative director of TKO Advertising. He has been recognized for creative excellence by industry publications including Advertising Age, and by the American Associations of Advertising Agencies.
