Enfrascada
Enfrascada, a new play performed in English with a light dusting of Spanish, is the latest from Tanya Saracho, a Chicago-based screenwriter and playwright who’s worked on HBO’s
Girls and
Looking.
Enfrascada finds the nationally recognized writer/performer exploring the quirky intersection between old and new remedies for heartbreak. When the lovelorn protagonist Alicia, described as a tightly wound Latina curator, and her friends turn to the “old-school Santería” of neighborhood elders, pointed hilarity and poignant opportunities for reconciliation of diverse approaches ensue.
