One Bad Year by Meliza Banales
Wednesday, August 12 -- One-Woman Show Series: One Bad Year by Meliza Banales. In 2008, a marriage ended, a nephew was murdered, and a job was lost-- and that was only the first eight weeks of the year for Meliza Baales. You'd think it would be a banner time to just throw in the towel, but how can you do that when there's so much meditating and hoola-hooping to do? "One Bad Year" is the story after the story. Using multi-media, dance, bubbles, balloons, science, Xicano-Buddhism, fashion, and astrology the show follows the three selves of Banales -- her inner child, Lil' Missy, her inner-chola, Mari, and Meliza herself-- through their year-long journey of forgiveness, re-invention, and really, really good hair. What we see are not the makings for a stellar tragedy, but rather the ingredients for healing and making it to the other side, relatively unscathed. Written and performed as part of the AIRspace Residency Program for the '08-'09 season.
