This year’s lineup includes a 14-minute musical, 21 Chump Street: The Musical, by Hamilton star Lin Manuel Miranda, and a short film by native Houstonian Vannessa Vasquez of Hulu’s East Los High. Along with 21 Chump Street: The Musical, TEATRX will produce two plays chosen after a nationwide call for short plays. On behalf of TEATRX, Laura Moreno will direct, The Party Favor, by Julián Mesri. The second play, A Volunteer by Marian Licha will be directed and acted by members of Teatro Indigo. This year’s festival will also feature the Spanish language play, El Espejo by Emilio Carballido directed by RS Producciones, and a dance theatre piece written and choreographed by Adam Castaneda of Pilot Dance Project.

Because of the high volume of fantastic film submissions, TEATRX will show 13 short films ranging from two to fifteen minutes. Films will be split between four performances Thursday – Saturday. Each night the audience will vote on their favorite film. The top films will be featured at the final performance on Sunday, November 24.

Blu Internacional – Musical Duo

In 1992, Patricia Gras (USA/Argentina) and María Rimbau (Spain, Ecuador) founded Barandúa, a Latin folk and pop ban, with Carlos Gonzalez Rimbau, María’s brother, Luis Silva and Antonio Mazu both from Chile. Together they produced two CD’s, Barandúa Live and Our Songs. Later, Carlitos Gonzalez Blum (US/Spain) and Luis Montes de Oca (Méjico) replaced Luis and Antonio. In 2009, both María and Patricia were struck with breast cancer. To raise money for breast cancer survivors, the Barandúa band held a concert at the University of St. Thomas, Jones Hall to a full house. Following María’s treatment, they decided to become a duo, this time playing international music with the collaboration of sound engineer Mariela Massuh. They sing in Spanish, English, French, Italian, Russian, Arabic, and Portuguese. Blu International music duo performs at parties, weddings, concerts, and on ZOOM under quarantine!
