On May 31st and June 1st Goat in the Road is hosting a work-in-process showing of Carlota, a new musical we’re making in collaboration with Dr. Denise Frazier. We’re very excited about this show, and would love your input on it at this early stage of work.
Carlota is a new musical experience that will explore the life and descendents of a Cuban woman named Carlota Ruíz de González. The character is a historical composite created by Denise in 2018 as part of Goat in the Road's immersive show, The Stranger Disease, and re-visited in the digital project, Sick Note: Letters from the Epidemic. Now, the company is creating a full musical experience based around Denise’s work. The show will jump through generations, charting the way trauma and joy are passed down from one descendent to the next.
