Coming up next is Bethlehem by Octavio Solis, directed by Aaron Aguilar! If you're interested in being involved with our last show of our second season, come to auditions June 22nd at noon!

From books.google.com:  Characters: 2 male, 5 female.  Winner of the 2003 National Latino Playwriting Award.  A dark work about self-knowledge and the nature of evil, where the devil lives in a godless world. Lee, accompanied by his photographer girlfriend Dru, arrives in El Paso to interview Mateo, (a convicted murderer recently released), over a period of a few days. During the intense interview process, Lee so empathizes with his subject's life in the past that he merges his own past with it in order to reenact it. The bloody conclusion draws upon the dangers of defining the nature of evil.

It may be spring in Texas, but it’s winter at Proxy
The Flu Season reminds us of the coldest times of in lives


Proxy Theatre continues its successful second season with The Flu Season, written by award-winning contemporary playwright Will Eno. Although the play will be opening in the Texas heat of May, the inhabitants of a psychiatric rehab are going through the winter of their lives. But love happens no matter the season.

The Flu Season will remind of you of the warmest and coldest times in your life. "The Flu Season takes place in both a hospital and a theater," said Aguilar, "It's a play about the love we feel for the art we create and for another person...and it's about how easy it is to screw up that love. We nurture, we toil, we invest, and yet somehow it still goes up in flames. And so what? We're not perfect. The Flu Season is an exciting new kind of theatre by Will Eno; it's certainly experimental, but like all his work it is still so tenderly, so passionately human."
Written in 2003, The Flu Season is the winner of the 2004 Oppenheimer Award for best New York debut by an American playwright. Focusing on the narratives of a Man and Woman and their Doctor and Nurse, this play is a love story for today-- one that doesn't necessarily end well. Through Prologue and Epilogue the audience is enabled to view the hopeful beginnings and jaded hindsight of the writer, framing the characters in both the present and future.
Runs May 16th-June 1st at 8 pm at The Overtime Theater. Shows are Thursday-Saturday at 8pm. Tickets go on sale May 2nd. All events take place at the Overtime Theater at 1203 Camden St, SATX 78215. Free parking can be found on site.

(*) Upcoming: End Days by Deborah Zoe Laufer, Proxy Theatre, November 1 - 17



Proxy Theatre San Antonio





End Days
by contemporary playwright Deborah Zoe LauferEnd Days Deborah Zoe Laufer Proxy Theatre San Antonio
directed by Proxy’s Artistic Director Aaron Aguilar

Opens November 1st and closes November 17th; shows are Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights at 8pm.

Special byProxy events are: The Designer Reveal—October 29th 8pm; Thought/Talk—November 10th 9:30pm; and the Final Curtain Party—November 17th, 10pm.

All events take place at the Overtime Theater at 1203 Camden St, SATX 78215 (click for map). Free parking can be found on site.

Tickets are $10-15 for general admission; cash/check/credit/debit accepted at the door; reservations and tickets available online. Please visit proxytheatre.org or call 210-807-8646 for reservations or questions.

End Days is about the end; of the world, that is. “I think Deborah Zoe Laufer has found a great paradox about living in the new millennium; the advance of technology and science makes this world extremely wondrous and terrifying at the same time. It’s funny because after 150 years, we’re still wondering: is this the best of times or the worst? Either way, this time, it’s a little funnier. Sorry Mr. Dickens.” said Director Aaron Aguilar. The play is the opening production of Proxy’s second season, and is sure to be popular with an audience as it is “…both poignantly redemptive and often hilariously funny,” according to the Huffington Post. With Proxy’s production, End Days, which won the 2008American Theatre Critics Association Steinberg Citation, will finally have a San Antonio premiere.
End Days by Deborah Zoe Laufer premiered in 2008, seven years after the attacks of 9/11—the event that breaks the Stein family. The father, Arthur, doesn’t do much of anything anymore, while Lisa, the mom, has developed a close, personal relationship with Jesus Christ. With her parents effectively abandoning her, it’s no wonder that Rachel Stein rebels by wearing all black, painting her face white and railing against her parents. Add the new kid across the street proclaiming his love for her, and it’s easy to see why Rachel is miserable. The only thing that could make things worse is if Jesus told her mom that the world is going to end on Wednesday.

by Martin Sherman
directed by Chelsea Taylor

July 19 - August 4, Thursdays - Saturdays at 8 p.m.
Overtime Center for the Arts, 1203 Camden Street, San Antonio (click for map)
Tickets $8 - $32 plus on-line fees or at the door.


Information at www.proxytheatre.org or at (210) 865-7618 for reservations or questions

Bent, by revered playwright Martin Sherman, directed by Chelsea Taylor, highlights an often forgotten element of the Holocaust—the persecution of homosexuals. “After watching a documentary about the Westboro Baptist Church, I noticed the use of pink triangles in their posters to protest against certain celebrities. I knew what it meant because of Sherman’s play, and I felt that everyone should know that this symbol is still being used to try to oppress people—and how horrible that is” said Director Chelsea Taylor. 

The play is the final production of Proxy’s first six-show season, and promises to have great impact on the audience: ”Bent is a play that’s both horrifying and illuminating. It’s about the worst that man can do and the very best. How often do you get a story of that magnitude?” said Artistic Director Aaron Aguilar.

about the performance

Bent by Martin Sherman premiered in The Royal Court Theatre in London in 1979. “In 1934 Berlin on the eve of the Nazi incursion, two soldiers burst into the apartment of Max and his lover, Rudy, and slit their guest’s throat, beginning a nightmare odyssey through Nazi Germany. Ranked lower on the human scale than Jews, the men, as avowed homosexuals, flee” (Samuel French). The play darts from a seedy club to a forest encampment to a concentration camp as the men struggle to stay alive and keep their humanity in one of the darkest hours of human history. With touches of cabaret, non-realism and heartbreaking tragedy, Bent continues to captivate audiences since its inception, despite the measure of time and distance between 1934 Germany and 2012 San Antonio.

Two soldiers burst into the apartment and slit their guest's throat, beginning a nightmare odyssey through Nazi Germany. Ranked lower on the human scale than Jews, the men as avowed homosexuals, flee. Desperate and on the run, Max asks his own "discreetly" homosexual Uncle Freddie for help as the older man offers little more than suggestions on how to live, as he does, practicing homosexuality on the side. Attempting their escape, Rudy is beaten to death as Horst, another homosexual prisoner, warns Max to deny his lover. Taken to a death camp at Dachau, Max and Horst branded with the "pink triangle", hope to survive with each other for comfort and courage but it is not to be.

Written more than 400 years ago, William Shakespeare's The Tragedy of Macbeth is one of his shortest works, but arguably the bloodiest. Macbeth, Thane of Glamis is returning victorious with Banquo from a war , when they come upon three witches. Haling Macbeth as Thane of Glamis, Cawdor and "king hereafter," they offer Macbeth the prophecy that will forever change his life. When Lady Macbeth hears these prophecies, she determines that the witches' words will ring true if not by fate's hands, then by her husband's or her own. "The feeling of terror that accompanies all of the grisly acts of 'Macbeth' comes not from the shock value of gore or blood on stage; it comes from the sociopolitical weight of the acts themselves in concert with the boundless ambition of the characters who perform them," said Director Nathan Thurman. Plotting and assassination, guilt and suspicion, ghosts and witches--Macbeth is a timeless, human story of ambition.

Teenage Charlotte's beautiful mother has died, and in the midst of her own grief and her father's unwillingness to cope, she turns for comfort to the story of Helen of Troy, convinced that beauty, desire and fame can help her bring her mother back and punish the world that took her away in the first place. Getting beauty tips from her popular friend, seeking career advice on how to be a porn star from a guidance counselor who may or may not be having an affair with her, and searching for love from the football jock who barely even knows she exists, Charlotte finds herself searching in fantasy for what she cannot find in reality, leaving a trail of destruction behind her. Everything Will Be Different is a riveting story about the confusion and pain of growing up in a culture obsessed with beauty.

Adam Rapp’s Red Light Winter explores a twisted triangle of unrequited love, lust, and intrigue that arises between two former college roommates and a mysterious French prostitute in Amsterdam.

Proxy Theatre’s Artistic Director and director of Red Light Winter, Aaron Aguilar, chose the play because it offers San Antonio audiences “a stunning glimpse at the character’s lives, at our lives. Because we’ve all been there, we have that friend, we’ve met that person that we weren’t meant to fall in love with, but do anyway. These characters can teach us about ourselves in such a funny and heartbreaking way…this play stays with you.” Expressive and haunting, Red Light Winter delivers a story about the relationships and passions that control our lives.
