The Narciso Martinez Cultural Arts Center in San Benito will host Teatro Luna, a Chicago-based theater company, on June 19.

The group of female performers is bringing their groundbreaking work to the Rio Grande Valley for free. Luna has been called “theatre that matters” by The New York Times and is America’s only Pan-Latina theatre company producing a full season of work. The Chicago Tribune says that Luna “…wears its Latina cultural specificity with an ease that is both rich and fully American” and that they are “hugely entertaining” by New City. Luna is currently touring throughout Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California in preparation for their first appearance at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August.

Luna’s performance at the Narciso Martinez Cultural Arts Center, 225 E. Stenger St., San Benito, on June 19 is scheduled to start at 7:30 p.m.
