Enfrascada, September 2017
Austin Chronicle Review
“From beginning to end, Enfrascada is an evening of theatre that explores the difference between what we think we want and what we actually need, and depicts the struggle between those two realities with humor, honesty, magic, and, of course, heartbreak.”
~T. Lynn Mikeska

Broadway World Austin Review
“Teatro Vivo should be commended for this production. While there is no shortage of great stories created by and about women, these works are often overlooked and less frequently produced. It is now more important than ever for women focused theatre, particularly about women of color, to be encouraged and brought to the forefront.”
~Lacey Cannon Gonzales
