Notes: | part of The Source festival | |||||
Synopsis: | Most stories about a hero involve super powers, but The Making of a Modern Folk Hero features a would-be champion armed with little more than a ridiculous costume and righteous indignation. As unlikely as that may seem, both the hero and this play at the Source Festival achieve major success. | |||||

Synopsis: | Based on the life of ballet legend George Balanchine, Three Movements follows a fictional choreographer, Alex, as he nurses polio-stricken Sonia, his wife and his greatest dancer. Unable to face the reality that she will never dance again, he convinces himself that he can save his muse. When he becomes frustrated with her lack of progress, though, he leaves her to pursue a promising young dancer, Lindsay. The play examines the complex relationship between choreographer and dancer, the power of eroticism in art, and how people choose (or refuse) to confront illness and the aging process | |||||

Synopsis: | After being elected the first Latino Pima County Attorney in half a century, Edward Moreno's bond with his brother Beto is the strongest it has been in years. But when one of Beto's former friends kills an on-duty police officer as she breaks into the friend's home under questionable circumstances, Edward has to prosecute the case. The decisions Edward faces about what charges to pursue not only put his career in jeopardy; they also re-ignite long-suppressed tensions between Edward and Beto, who share the same parents but not the same skin color. | |||||
