Zocalo Toronto presents The Weeping Salsa November 13, 2009

Zocalo Toronto presents the world premiere of The Weeping Salsa, a dynamic new multi-disciplinary stage production that fuses traditional drama with contemporary and Latin-style partnered dancing.

-Written by Zocalo Toronto’s Artistic Director Vladimir Jon Cubrt, The Weeping Salsa is a lyrical tragedy in two acts that tells a story about eros – love that is passionate, physical and urgent; about power – subjugating one's self for the sake of the partnership; and about finding the strength to stand alone.

-The Weeping Salsa explores the relationship of Danny and Adele (performed by Cubrt and Donna Christo), a pair of star-crossed lovers whose lives are inextricably tied together well after their love affair has ended.

-Using dance to explore the timbres of their relationship, The Weeping Salsa deals with themes of sensuality, emotional dependency, and the delicate balance of power in relationships.

-Starring: Donna Christo (Spirit of a Nation, Anne of Green Gables, Leave the Porch Light On) and Vladimir Jon Cubrt (Flin Flonning, Sara’s Cave, Odyssey 5).
