Filipino American Experiences with The Concord Festival of Authors

On October 30 from 8-9PM, The Umbrella Arts Center returns to the CFA with an exploration of the Filipino American Experience through the presentation of three, short intersectional plays on the representation of Beauty, what it means to be American, and the Aging process in relation to technology. 

This event will include access to original play scripts and short viewing of one of the plays, a dramaturgical deconstruction of the works, and an interactive discussion with Playwright Hortense Gerardo, Director Michelle Aguillon, and Actor Jude Torres. They will be joined for engaged conversation by: Stewart Ikeda, Marketing Director for The Umbrella Arts Center; Brian Boruta, Director of The Umbrella Stage Company; and Megan Connor, Major Gifts Officer at The Umbrella.
