The Labours - New Play Reading Festival
Come see The Labours by Luis Alfaro at Boston Court Theatre in Pasadena!
A Modern Tragedy Seeking Redemption—and a Community Finding Reflection
In The Labours, Luis Alfaro’s bold new reimagining of Euripides’ Herakles, the mythical Herakles becomes Era (Spanish for Was), a female soldier navigating the disorienting path from military service back to civilian life. Her labours are not the heroic feats of legend, but internal battles—grappling with guilt, loss, and the irreversible harm done to her own family. The military becomes the modern underworld, and the battlefield is now within. This new Labours explores the trauma of war, the price of violence, and the long, uncertain road to redemption.
Click here for more information on the play, the talented Luis Alfaro, and tickets!

Can Comedia Help Us Understand California’s Past?
Co-presented by Zócalo Public Square, Playwrights’ Arena, UCLA Diversifying the Classics, and LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes, with generous support from Snap Foundation, Karsh Family Foundation, Broad Foundation, and Olga Garay-English
During the artistic and literary boom of Spain's Golden Age, theater known as comedia helped audiences on both sides of the Atlantic understand their past and present. Today, contemporary playwrights have adapted these 17th-century classics to shed light on L.A.’s history, touching on issues including power and sexuality, gentrification, and Black, Korean, and Latino identity.
Join us under the stars at LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes for readings of three adaptations from the 2024 anthology Golden Tongues: Adapting Hispanic Classical Theater in Los Angeles. Barbara Fuchs, director of UCLA’s Diversifying the Classics initiative, will introduce central themes of the plays. Playwrights Diana Burbano, June Carryl, and Luis Alfaro will offer brief pre-performance remarks and will sign copies of Golden Tongues, available for purchase from Tía Chucha’s, during a post-reading reception.
About the plays:
In Diana Burbano’s Flickers, a director in early 20th-century Los Angeles becomes embroiled in the perils of Hollywood: ambition and treachery, prejudice and plagiarism. In her version of Juan Ruiz de Alarcón’s La cueva de Salamanca (The Cave of Salamanca), Burbano recreates the magic of the first days of film while exploring its racism.
June Carryl’s Florence and Normandie adapts Pedro Calderón de la Barca's Amar después de la muerte (To Love Beyond Death) and sets the action against the backdrop of the Rodney King uprising. As tensions boil, two families entwined by location and love find themselves living the American racial nightmare.
Painting in Red is Luis Alfaro's “whitewash” of Calderón de la Barca’s El pintor de su deshonra (The Painter of His Own Dishonor), exploring a Chicano painter’s relationship to a real and imagined Spain and an endlessly gentrifying Los Angeles.
This program is part of California 175 — What Connects California?, a suite of free Zócalo events and essays, bringing together leaders and thinkers from all walks of life to envision California’s next 175 years.
Make your reservation for a FREE TICKET today and come watch me read selected scenes from Diana Burbano’s funny, enlightening, and endearing play - Flickers!
