"Empanada Loca"

Chilling Play "Empanada Loca" Channels Sweeney Todd

Drug dealer. Masseuse. Ex-con. Survivor. Dolores has led a life like no other. Now living deep under Manhattan in an abandoned subway tunnel, she has a story you won't believe -- or ever forget. Inspired by the legend of Sweeney Todd, Aaron Mark's "Empanada Loca" is a thrilling new play about an indomitable woman who knows that in this dog-eat-dog world only one rule matters: eat or be eaten. Tony-nominated actress Daphne Rubin-Vega ("Rent", "Jack Goes Boating") stars in this macabre marvel of a one-woman show at New York's Bank Street Theatre. The November 12 performance includes an exclusive opportunity to chat with Rubin-Vega in a post-show talkback session.
