One of Impact's favorite playwrights, Enrique Urueta, has a staged reading of his brand new play-in-progress Get Your Troy On! on Tuesday June 10 as part of the National Queer Arts Festival. Think Ugly Betty meets the Trojan War. Mean Girls ass-tappin' The Iliad. A pop-kitsch collision of Greek myth and comic books.
Here's the 411:
Get Your Troy On!
June 10 @ 7:30pm
Voice Factory, 1519 Mission Street at 11th St.
Diana wishes she was Wonder Woman. Elijah wishes he was Cher. They both wish they could be anywhere but Walnut Creek. Just before Elijah is attacked at school, their wishes come true—only instead of the daily battles of high school they find themselves fighting in the Trojan War. Can they find their way back? Do they even want to?
Award winning playwright Enrique Urueta returns to the National Queer Arts Festival teaming up once again with acclaimed stage and screen director Mary Guzmán to present his newest play that's a theatrical collision of pop music, comic book fantasy, and Greek mythology.
Hope to see you there!
