Two River Theater announces the full cast and creative team for Ropes, a play written by Bárbara Colio, translated by Maria Alexandria Beech, and directed by Lisa Rothe.
About Ropes
In this beautiful and universal story about forgiveness, love, and loss, three brothers rendezvous at an airport to meet the father who abandoned them as children, and who is now the most famous tightrope walker of all time. The production will feature Varín Ayala as Paul, the middle brother; Gabriel Gutiérrez as Prince, the youngest brother; and Luis Moreno as Presley, the oldest brother.
“We were introduced to Bárbara Colio’s Ropes, in Maria Alexandria Beech’s exquisite translation, in our 2013 Crossing Borders festival of new Latino plays, and just never let it go,” says Artistic Director John Dias. “It’s a gorgeous, deeply moving play. We are especially pleased to present two performances in Spanish, and create opportunities for our Spanish-speaking audiences to experience the play in its original language.”

Performances will begin in Two River’s Marion Huber Theater, 21 Bridge Avenue, on Saturday, February 20 and continue through Sunday, March 20. The opening night performance is Friday, February 26 at 8pm. Tickets are available from 732.345.1400 or tworivertheater.org. The lead production sponsor is Bank of America.
