About
Join us for this special performance for Rudolfo "Corky" Gonzales', The Revolutionist! Performance & reception held on his 90th Birthday to celebrate Denver's own movimiento veterano
Written by Corky in 1967, this play looks at an old man who once fought in the Mexican Revolution. Set in the late 1950s-early 1960s, we see how Papa, our main character, is caught in his past. From reminiscing about his time with Pancho Villa to his currently family struggles, we are taken on a journey that can be tied back to our own elders and ancestors.
Join us starting at 7PM for a reception to commemorate Corky on his 90th Birthday!
Throughout the month of June we will also have a Chicano Cultural Renaissance Exhibit. Exhibit opens Friday, June 1st at 6pm – Artwork inspired by Corky and the Chicano Movement. Feel free to walk through at any point to view. Our operating hours are typically 9-6PM Tuesday-Friday with exceptions for performances.
