Gringa Loca & I Thought You Were Dead
Two great one-person shows for the price of one!
GRINGA LOCA
"You're no teacher! What you are es una Gringa Loca!"
-Andres
High School Student
Quito, Ecuador
Trying to relieve the waitressing blues in Pittsburgh, Hilary Kimblin takes a teaching job - in Ecuador! See what women's jails, Gene Simmons, and the limbo have to do with Philosophy class and why "Carnival Kills Kids" in Gringa Loca!
I THOUGHT YOU WERE DEAD
by Lauren Weedman
Directed by Kevin Mullaney
Mr. Critzer wasn't gay, was he? He was just too busy teaching his swing choir to find a nice girl and settle down...right? In 1987, Mr. Critzer died suddenly from a "head cold" and sent one of his students on a life-long anxiety trip of Ouija Boards, faith healers, and strip-mall funerals. Is the afterlife a welcoming beam of light populated by friends and family or simply overactive glands?
