The performer and activist, Guadalupe Urbina had put me in touch with them, and so I went to help them create sets for their next play, which is about violence. Since most of the youth had no prior experience in painting or drawing, we looked at some of Luciano's work and incorporated stencils and graffiti techniques to develop backdrops for the show.
In Guadalupe's words, "They built this theater with their own hands, at the back of this church..."
I was so touched by the passion of these youth for theater, and their incredible skill and devotion.
