Event Series Event Series: The Ballot of Paola Aguilar

Just in time for the November election comes this smart comedy about ethnic stereotypes, feckless political consultants and one woman’s journey toward personal fulfillment.

A major unnamed political party — we can all guess which one it is — hires a university professor to help it stop the hemorrhaging of Hispanic voters. Desperately in need of cash to pay for sperm, and IVF treatments to start a family, Professor Aguilar reluctantly takes the job.

This critically acclaimed comedy by Mexico-born playwright Bernardo Cubría pokes fun at America’s obsession with identity politics while exploring one woman’s very non-political quest to become a mother.
