Three Houston Theatres Collaborate to Produce Quiara Alegría Hudes’ "Elliot" Trilogy

The Theatre Times: How often do audiences in a given city get the chance to see a full body of work by a single living playwright in the span of just one month? When this does happen, how often is the playwright a woman? Or Latinx? While this may be a common occurrence in New York and London, it is a rarity in places like Houston, Texas. But this is changing in 2020. Playwright Quiara Alegría Hudes’ much-acclaimed Elliot Trilogy—Elliot, A Soldier’s Fugue, Water by the Spoonful, and The Happiest Song Plays Last—comes to Houston in February-March 2020 in a unique collaboration between Main Street Theatre, Stages Repertory Theatre, and Mildred’s Umbrella Theatre Company.
