A Pregones/PRTT Plataforma Presentation
Tragic, really, how she has to die for him to become interesting.
From international ensemble The SuperGeographics, Maybe Next Time, written by Caitlin George and directed by Jonathan Taikina Taylor, is a continuous and contentious love tale on repeat that searches for an ending that’s more than a body count.
Over three acts, lovers C and X (Violeta Picayo and Juan Diego Bonilla) replay their doomed romance across asynchronous, genre-hopping eras: a Beckettian Lucy & Ricky in the 1950s, a realist melodrama in the 1890s, and a vaudevillian tragedy in Ancient Greece. The pair never changes, but the world around them does, and every era raises different questions.
Their failed attempts exhume the women who were cut down, killed off, or written out before their turn to speak. The result is a séance for our foremothers, who call out from footnotes, from behind curtains, and from old wives’ tales.
Come resurrect your elders on the stage they left behind.
Maybe Next Time We’ll Be More was produced, in part, through IRT’s Residency Season under the title Parsley. (irttheater.org). Developed at Teatro La Memoria, Santiago and with support from Network of Ensemble Theatres and ART/NY.

The SuperGeographics
The SuperGeographics are an international ensemble of theatre artists colliding their differences together to give delight. With a scientific specificity, they make plays which are highly athletic and textually bold. Sparked to flame by the ecstasy of Queer and feminist rage, they tell unexpected love stories, fantastical epics, and question inherited hierarchies around cultures, politics, and bodies. Building extraordinary worlds with razor sharp movement, multilingual texts, and striking design they use words like ‘collision’ to describe the process of collaboration across cultures of their rehearsal room. Because inside these carefully considered spaces they work like a car crash testing site; throwing everything at a question, seeing what sticks when it hits the wall, and analyzing the results with scientific specificity. Collaborating with artists & thinkers from The Americas, Oceania, Europe, and Southeast Asia, together they have made works across three continents and countless cultures.
The SuperGeographics are Juan Diego Bonilla, Jackie Fox, Caitlin George, Violeta Picayo, Jonathan Taikina Taylor and Kristian Sorensen.
