Rising Youth Theatre is so proud to be a part of this project, in partnership with Safos Dance Theatre and Border Arts Corridor!
On March 12, 2022 at 6pm, performing and visual artists from both sides of the US / Mexico border will present “Mis Amores Fronterizos.”
On March 12, 2022, performing and visual artists from both sides of the US/Mexico border will present “Mis Amores Fronterizos,” the product of a multi-year collaborative, community-engaged research and exploration process. Over the past three years, the ensemble has conducted over 50 community story circles, interviews, and workshops. “Mis Amores Fronterizos,” represents the culmination of this process. Co-created by community members and artists on both sides of the border, the production features creative interpretation of local narratives through dance, theatre, and visual arts.
Mis Amores Fronterizos, features the work of more than 30 collaborating artists from the Douglas/Agua Prieta community. Ensemble artists will perform alongside community partners in a shared effort to center stories of love that move and dissolve literal and figurative borders.
This free, family-friendly event will be presented on both sides of the border fence between Douglas, Arizona, and Agua Prieta, Sonora, west of the port of entry.
Las Fronterizas Ensemble invites all to attend this multidisciplinary binational event.
What: “Mis Amores Fronterizos”
When: Saturday, March 12, 2022, at 6:00 pm
Where: Douglas/Agua Prieta Border Fence, West of Port of Entry
Admission is free and open to all.
Mis Amores Fronterizos, was originally scheduled to premiere on March 28th 2020, but the production was paused due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent 20 month long border closure. Throughout the border closure, Las Fronterizas continued to collaborate virtually, evolving the production in response to the experiences of people in the Agua Prieta/Douglas community through the ongoing pandemic. The newly adapted performance explores the past, present, and future, holding space for community reflection, honoring loved ones lost, and sharing love stories that express the heartbeat of this fronterizo community.
