Meet Manuel Aquiles Lopez Torres, artistic entrepreneur and just one of eight playwrights working on ATB’s new documentary theatre project This Place/Displaced, to give voice to stories of displacement, gentrification, and housing inequity in Boston.
We chatted with Mani to find out a little bit more about his play, Small Up Yuhself (Move Over), and what this project means to him.
Join us at Charlestown Working Theater August 17-25 to see Small Up Yuhself and seven more new plays!
Thanks Mani!
This Place/Displaced is performing at the Charlestown Working Theatre on at 8pm August 17, 18, 24, and 25. Tickets from $10. Join us to hear the stories of our eight amazing community partners from across the city of Boston. Plus, check out an exhibit of our community partners’ own artwork and writing in the lobby and pick up ATB’s original zine about the history and current climate of gentrification in Boston.
