Recommendations of La Llorona

  • Greg Lam: La Llorona

    I saw La Llorona at a partial reading in 2016 and at Fresh Ink in 2017. It's a bold story of three girls coming of age in Texas mashed up with scary folklore from several different cultures. Each of the three girls have their own arc and their hauntings are in turns scary, funny, moving, and thrilling. The folklores the playwright pulls from are new to me and I'd want to see again to better understand the many connections and nuances. Definitely a good read.
