The joys, tribulations, and plot twists of epic love are bursting onstage in this brilliantly funny homage to the telenovela by Karen Zacar铆as (Native Gardens). On a stormy night in Bellarica, Mexico, two babies are born鈥攐ne into a life of outlandish wealth, and one into a life of poverty. When the newborns are swapped by a ruthless ex鈥揵eauty queen, the stage is set for two outrageous misfortunes to grow into an extraordinary destiny.
Directed by Tony Award winner Ruben Santiago-Hudson (August Wilson鈥檚 Jitney) and filled with vibrant choreography and live music, Destiny of Desire explores the emotional rollercoaster and social commentary that make the telenovela the most popular form of storytelling on the planet.
