  • Summary
  • Cast & Staff

June 17 – September 30

A mystery emerges from a river, and a fable takes flight. It’s unabashedly romantic; nestled in the everyday, and buoyed by magic. It slips seamlessly into the world of plays that live here – contemporary and eternal, capturing the ever-shifting story that spins between lovers and among families. Relationships like this require something braver than love. They require trust. The kind that puts your heart on notice. It’s a challenge that’s part thrill and part threat. Rising to it may be the only hope for happily-ever-after.

Featuring Gabriela Castillo, Eduardo Xavier Curley-Carrillo, Erica Cruz Hernández, Melisa Pereyra, Ronald Román-Meléndez & Triney Sandoval

Helena's feelings about her sister Belmira's wedding to Duarte are complicated, much like her relationships with both Belmira and Duarte themselves. But Helena's thoughts are redirected when her father literally fishes a mysterious man out of the Amazonian river, sending everyone's plans into upheaval in this riveting fable about the complexities of love. Originally slated for the 2020 season.
