Description

A new play by Mónica Sánchez

Negra, a Chicana, Genízara, 21st century combat veteran has returned to her ancestral homeland in the Southwest. Psychotropic plant medicine launches her odyssey through a ceremonial and multi-generational labyrinth where she must confront ancestral trauma and original wounds. Quintessential New Mexican topography, histories and rituals illuminate universal echoes of colonization, war, and climate crisis making way for Negra’s ultimate transformation. This play is her “trip.” 

Post show conversation facilitated by Erik Ehn, playwright, and Estevan Rael-Galvez, Native Bound Unbound with Mónica Sánchez, dramatista.com.
