Electricidad

Un nuevo tipo de Tragedia Griega.
Donde los Locos Del Sur son los reyes y el Spanglish domina.

Una variación Chicana de la Tragedia Griega Electra, Electricidad de Luís Alfaro es una adaptación brutalmente moderna de una historia clásica de veganza situada dentro de la cultura de las "pandillas de barrio". Uno de los autores latinos más reconocidos de Los Estados Unidos y ganador del "Premio Genio" MacArthur, esta versión libre de Luís Alfaro sitúa los personajes simbólicos en el mundo actual del "Cholo", donde los Locos Del Sur son los reyes y el Spanglish domina.

Mayores de 13 años debido al tema y lenguaje fuerte.
