Baquiné is an absurd romp through death and back, written and performed by Puerto Rican trans artist Moire del Carmen. This one-act play follows Moire and her friends as they grapple with loss, trying to make art while the seductive pull of death threatens to consume them. With humor and absurdity, Baquiné explores identity, mourning, and the artistic process, as Moire spirals in her attempts to write herself out of sorrow. What happens when grief is met with laughter, love, and the transformative power of art?

Most of all, this play is about Theater.

The artist invites you to wear black to be part of the theme, but come as you are; all are welcome.
