KANO + ABE: A DALY CITY BIBLE STORY
at Potrero Stage
Bindlestiff alum Ignacio Zulueta’s (JOSE RIZAL ON ANGEL ISLAND, 57
VARIETIES) new play, KANO + ABE: a daly city bible story takes an unflinching look at the human toll of America’s chaotic immigration attitudes and policies through the
story of a fil-am soldier on the run who enters the shadow world of his undocumented brother. Abe, the good son, has returned from a tour of duty in Afghanistan. Kano,
the prodigal, is conniving his way toward the undocumented American Dream. KANO + ABE is a story of sibling rivalry, undocumented immigration, and some good old-fashioned
murder. Directed by Colin Johnson and featuring Carlos Aguirre (aka MC INFINITE, OEDIPUS EL REY), Melvign Badiola (MOMMY QUEEREST, CHASING MEHSERLE), Jasmine Osborne (THE
JUNGLE BOOK, film: HOW TO BE A MAN), and Jed Parsario (RIZAL, JOSE RIZAL ON ANGEL ISLAND). Produced by PlayGround, Jim Kleinmann, Artistic Director.

Kreatibo Reunites!
Saturday, June 17, 2017 @ 7:30PM
Kreatibo presents "Back to the Past: Kreatibo Reunion"
Eastside Arts Alliance (wheelchair accessible)
ONE SHOW ONLY!!

Tickets: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/back-to-the-past-kreatibo-reunion-and-retrospective-tickets-33983398259
In 2003, the queer Pin@ys of
Kreatibo performed their first production, “Halo-Halo,” to sold-out shows at Bindlestiff. Then they performed “Dalagas & Tomboys: A Family Affair” in 2005, winning Curve
Magazine’s annual Lesbian Theatre Award. “Born out of the need to take our stories from the margins and into the spotlight,” Kreatibo is a queer Pin@y artist group that
was/is “dedicated to the preservation and creation of our collective memory, and uses artistic forums as a means of cultural activism.” On hiatus for twelve years, members of
Kreatibo now reassemble to reflect on themes of community, love, diaspora, and home. Using music, movement, words, and images, a Kreatibo group seasoned by age and time
reunites to honor the past, celebrate the present, and envision new dreams for the future.
