Carlota: Alhajero de Secretos is set in a house where time has stopped. Carlota, the family's matriarch, lives here with her three daughters: Mari Fer, the eldest who sweats nonstop; Mari Pepa, the narcoleptic middle child; and Mari Tere, the youngest who is in love for the first time. Carlota keeps the house in perfect order with the help of Prudencia, her housekeeper, and Soledad, her most constant companion. After the family attends the funeral of a man from Carlota's past, the order she has worked so hard to keep is upended, leaving Carlota to reckon with the repercussions of her rules.

Teatro Alebrijes
Teatro Alebrijes is an ensemble of Latiné theater creators committed to producing works in the dominant language of our members and audiences, Spanish, since 2011. We are a theater ensemble that seeks to amplify the voices of Spanish-speaking Latiné LGBTQ+ people through of the theater. We present original works written and developed through a participatory process. We do not attempt to represent a community as rich and diverse as the Latiné LGBT community, our only hope is that our work and the stories we present resonate with others and serve as a conduit to build bridges of communication and solidarity. Teatro Alebrijes is a program of the ALA Collective. Our ensemble was born from the desire to create a Christmas story based on the traditional Pastorela format, but integrating cuir characters in the journey to see the messiah who had been born. Our pastorelas changed little by little until they became Christmas stories where humor and celebration of our identities became an unmistakable hallmark of our ensemble. Over time, our work has expanded to include other stories in which our identity as Latiné cuir people who speak Spanish. We highlight Spanish-speaking cuir members of the Latino theater community. Part of our dedication to making work in Spanish is a response to the fact that when the queer Latinx experience is presented in the United States, it is often produced in English at a ratio of English to Spanish that rarely crosses the 50/50 threshold. fifty. We do theater in Spanish because, in our community, there is no theater in Spanish that elevates our stories as queer Latiné individuals. We work with Spanish as the dominant language in the hope that as theater embraces new stories about queer Latiné people, our work reminds the industry that not all of our experiences are centered in the English language.
