Electricidad

Event Description 

The theatre program is excited to announce our upcoming production of Luis Alfaro’s Electricidad, directed by Stefanie Sertich and presented at LaGuardia Performing Arts Center. This modern adaptation of Sophocles’ Electra is a bilingual play in English and Spanish, set in an East LA barrio, reinterpreting the classic tragedy through a contemporary lens. With its exploration of timeless themes of violence, loss, and redemption, Electricidad promises to captivate and engage audiences with its powerful and relevant narrative.

Stefanie Sertich has invited LAGCC's alumni, Julio Trinidad, professional actor, screenwriter and theatre artist to collaborate on the production as the cultural competency director. This production is also a celebration of student work, showcasing the talents and dedication of all the students involved. It offers a unique opportunity for connecting with our diverse community while highlighting the vital role of student contributions. We look forward to sharing this compelling and resonant experience with you.
