La Ruta's companion piece, this solo show by Isaac Gomez was created for, and is performed by, La Ruta actress and ensemble member Karen Rodriguez.
When an actress enters an empty warehouse to read a new play about the missing and murdered women of Ciudad Juárez, Mexico, she embarks on an expedition through the broken roads of a city offering far more questions than answers. The work pulls from hundreds of interviews collected down a rabbit hole of drug cartels, ex-convicts, unsavory reporters and others.
