Event

MACHOS at 16th Street
Men. Women. Women dressed as men. Teatro Luna, Chicagos All-Latina Theater Company, announces the world premiere of MACHOS, an interview based play about contemporary masculinities. In 2006, frustrated with our boyfriends, brothers, and bosses, our company of Latina women set out to answer the question: what are men really thinking? The result is MACHOS, a performance drawn from interviews with 50 men nationwide and performed by an all-Latina cast in drag. From a young mans relationship with his correctional officer father to man cheating on his wife with himself to an epic confrontation between fraternity brothers, MACHOS presents a range of true-life stories with Teatro Lunas trademark humor and unique Latina point of view. MACHOS follows our critically acclaimed shows S-E-X-OH and LUNATIC(A)S and moves beyond the everyday stereotypes of gender, offering a complex look at how 50 men (and eight Latina women) learned how to be men. As always, Teatro Luna is cheeky, straightforward, and willing to ask even the most hard hitting questions: exactly how did you learn to use a urinal?

Developed and directed by Coya Paz. Created by Teatro Luna. Coya Paz is the Co-Artistic Director of Teatro Luna, and was named one of UR Magazines 30 Under 30 in 2005 and one of GO NYC! Magazines 100 Women We Love in 2007. She was the 2006-2007 Artist-In-Residence at the Center for the Study of Race, Politics, and Culture. Previous collaborations with Teatro Luna include Generic Latina, Dejame Contarte, The Maria Chronicles, and S-e-x-Oh!
