Water and Power in San Jose!

January 13th, 2009 herbert Posted in Home, Schedule | No Comments »

Water & Power

By Richard Montoya for Culture Clash

Directed by Richard Montoya and Herbert Siguenza

 March 12 – 29, 2009

 

What:

On a dark, rainy night in a seedy motel on the outskirts of downtown L.A, twin brothers Water and Power, one a rising star state senator and the other an honored police officer, are forced to deal with their long buried past to prevent the crash and burn of their careers and the city they serve. Peppered with Culture Clash’s trademark satire and tart sarcasm, Water & Power is a gripping look at power politics and the people who hold our future in their hands. This play will be produced in English only. Contains strong language.

 CULTURE CLASH in AMERiCCA

 and CHAVEZ RAVINE!

 with OLLIN and Vincent Valdez and MInerva Garcia

 

 

Friday, January 16, 2009
  8:00 p.m. - 9:30 p.m.

Location: University Theatre 
  Parking Information

 


Description: Culture Clash is considered the most prominent Chicano-Latino performance troupe in American arts today. For nearly two decades, writer-actors Richard Montoya, Ric Salinas, and Herbert Siquenza have imitated the workings of social anthropologists by digging deep into America’s racialized culture to formulate their outrageous brand of “performance collage.” The characters in “Culture Clash in AmeriCCa,” like all of their memorable comedic sketches, are adapted from real interviews and reflect communities in flux across the US. The troupe’s signature use of satire, vaudeville, mime and spoken-word, dramatizes the voices of the socially invisible. 
Open to: Public
Admission: Entry Charge: $28 General; $26 Staff/Faculty/Alumni; $14 Student
Sponsor: Cultural Events

Culture Clash

USC Spectrum

University Park Campus
Bovard Auditorium

USC student with valid ID, $5. USC faculty and staff, $10. General public, $20.

Latino/Chicano comedy and theater group Culture Clash pays homage to everyone from Cantinflas to the Marx Brothers.

Culture Clash is made up of Richard Montoya, Ric Salinas and Herbert Sigenza. The Latino/Chicano comedy and theater group was born on Cinco de Mayo, 1984 at Galeria de la Raza in San Francisco, California. Originally composed of six members, this innovative troupe gained a place in the national spotlight with its 1988 play The Mission.

Drawing on such diverse influences such as Charlie Chaplin, Bertolt Brecht, Cantinflas and the Marx Brothers, Culture Clash has brought its blend of social and political satire to prominent venues including New York’s Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, Miami’s Colony Theatre and Los Angeles’ Mark Taper Forum; to its television specials and comedy series; to its movies and short films; to its artwork and visual style; and, most recently, to the publication of its collected works: Culture Clash: Life, Death and Revolutionary Comedy(1998) and Culture Clash in AmeriCCa: Four Plays (2003).
