Yamel Cucuy: A Bilingual Reading and Screening
About the event
Bilingual Reading/ Screening of Yamel Cucuy You’re invited to a LIVE dubbing of our filmed production of Yamel Cucuy en español: It’s the opposite of a lip sync: You enjoy a live screening of our 2024 production of Yamel Cucuy (filmed by Jose Lozano) with English subtitles. Actors will read the text LIVE in SPANISH, accompanied by LIVE sound effects. WHY ARE WE DOING THIS?: Our award-winning show is headed to Chicago and Los Angeles this fall. (Those performances will be in English with some Spanish). SIn embargo, our company has ambitions to take Yamel to Spanish-speaking festivals, to Mexico and beyond, so we have created this Spanish translation to share here in Austin and eventually further afield. The cast is going to be away from their families and other jobs for a total of five weeks this fall. We have a goal to raise $4,000 to supplement performer and stage manager stipends. Can you help them out?
