Casta

Salvage Vanguard Theater presents Adrienne Dawes' new play – an immersive performance that features puppets by Julia Smith and original music by Graham Reynolds – as inspired by Mexican casta paintings that depict the mixing of races in colonial Latin America. Look: A wealthy patron commissions an apprentice to paint a casta series, but the portraits come to life and revolt. Performances (an excellent cast, directed by JKJK) will take place in the Rapaport Atrium of the Blanton Museum's glorious venue.
