Ghosts of the River

By Octavio Solís

Directed by Larry Reed


October 1-11, 2009

Mexican Heritage Plaza Theater, San José


San Jose-based Teatro Vision presents Ghosts of the River a play that incorporates shadow theater, masked actors, and live music along with Octavio Solís’ epic writing into a unique collection of vignettes of those who have encountered the Rio Grande throughout time: Mexican Revolution refugees fleeing from violence; narcotic rivalries that strew the river with the dead; and Border Patrol agents who toil against the tide of immigration and personal conscience. Produced by San Francisco’s Shadowlight Productions, Ghosts of the River shares the untold stories of both sides of the divide.

This will be a bilingual play with Spanish/English translation provided through subtitles. Special events include a free performance on October 4, a student matinees and post show talkbacks with the director, visit our website for more details
