She and her students are making costumes for thespians that reflect current Cuban attire and some costumes to represent a throwback time of an earlier day in Cuba.
The play has been translated into English. It is directed by a man from Mexico City.
Performances are set for 7:30 p.m., Thursday-Friday-Saturday, Feb 19 to 21 and 2 pm, Sunday, Feb 22 at the Freed Center. Tickets are available by calling the box office and online.
