Lafayette: New Voices Series: Lucía Fuentes
June 21 - June 22
Towns Hall Theatre’s final New Voices Series will feature local playwright J. Lynn Jackson’s adventurous piece , Lucía Fuentes. “From the very first page, I was swept away by J. Lynn Jackson’s epic adventure, Lucia Fuentes” shared Artistic Director Richard Perez. “Hernan, our intrepid protagonist and his journey into a realm where the ordinary meets the extraordinary, reminded me that each of us carries within us the potential for heroic journeys and personal growth.”
A heinous crime of the state in Mexico triggers global indignation. To honor the victims and their legacy of peace and justice, spiritual guru Hernán Espinoza walks Japan’s Shikoku pilgrimage path. A Buddhist nun who guides Shikoku pilgrims has a vital interest in Hernán’s journey yet senses she must test his intentions. When lured to a dangerous shortcut, Hernán suffers a breakdown. Not knowing whether he is
alive or dead, a man or a woman, a saint or a sinner, in Japan or not, he continues to the end, which, on the circular Shikoku path, is also the beginning.
