LA Weekly says
it's a Go!
Evangeline . .
.a devoted
daughter by day, a Hollywood go-go dancer by night. A young Chicana’s
neighborhood roots and make-believe world collide as she is engulfed in
a journey of self-discovery through the music and art of the Sunset
Strip, Laurel Canyon, and La Cienega Boulevard while her East L.A.
neighborhood explodes in the 1968 student walkouts and the fight for
equal education and civil rights.
Evangeline, the Queen of Make-Believe:
A
collaboration between About Productions and Louie Pérez of Los Lobos, it
features the songbook of Grammy-winners Pérez and David Hidalgo and is
inspired by their rocker “Evangeline.” The show is written by
Theresa Chavez, Rose Portillo, and Pérez.

From May – June, the assembled works of all eight
artists will be presented live, in-sequence
“Synesthesia” is a multi-medium art show displaying how eight artists of
different genres inspire each other. The first artist was asked to
select a fortune cookie. They have two weeks to create a piece inspired
by the fortune. The next artist will then see that creation and will
have two weeks to design his own piece inspired by the artist before him
(never having seen the fortune). The next artist in the series will
interpret that piece and then has two weeks to create apiece of his own.
The next artist will interpret THAT piece and in two weeks will create
his work from there. Then another artist interprets the preceding piece
and the process will continue for 4 months involving a total of 8
performing artists. This game of “creativetelephone” will culminate in
an evening of their work performed live, in-sequence. The transitions
will consist of a video montage of moments in response to the artist who
just performed and glimpses into the initial impulses that sparked the
inspiration of the next piece to come.
