Disclosures: preferably 8 years old and up (however all ages allowed). Issues of racism, discrimination and prejudice.

Labor organizer and civil rights leader Emma Tenayuca helped Mexicans achieve a sense of unparalleled confidence and group pride as racial minorities in the 1930’s. Her legacy is that she challenged an important enterprise, the power structure of San Antonio city government, called for equal pay for equal work during a difficult time of wage differentials—the Depression era, and she articulated the integral issue of Mexican-American identity.

THE STORY: Recovering from a nervous breakdown, Jane is nursed and nagged by her relentlessly cheerful mother, and confused by her oversexed brother—who keeps changing into her father, her grandfather and her mother’s French lover. Eventually all (including Jane’s psychiatrist, who undergoes a sex change operation and swaps places with his wife) change characters again and become Jane herself—leaving her with no identity at all and pointing up the near impossibility of self-identification in our uncertain times.

Since first appearing at the Edinburgh Festival in 2004, “The Rap Canterbury Tales” has been taking the world by storm. The show re-creates Chaucer’s 14th century classic as an edgy rap battle, bringing the raunchy stories of lust and revenge to vivid new life. Hailed as one of the must-see shows at the Edinburgh Festival (“Truly awe-inspiring … 5 Stars!” - The Scotsman), Baba Brinkman’s medieval rap classic has ignited minds and sold-out theatres across Australia, Canada, England, and even at Harvard University. The Rogue Festival hit of ‘05 is returning for another round of rudeness. Don’t miss it!

How could the wife of the most famous writer be so easily forgotten? Making its United States Premiere, “Tea with Anne” explores the mentality of a woman dealing with the secrets and lies of abandonment; a woman who must ultimately chose between the painful truth and even harsher reality.

“For this year’s Rogue Festival, Blake Jones & the Trike Shop have created a unique new show focused on their upcoming trip to one of rock n’ roll’s most important shrines:
The Cavern Club in Liverpool, England.

Their CD’s have traveled to Europe ahead of them: In Belgrade, they charted on an influential radio station at #8.In Italy, a music magazine wrote: “Jones e soci sono aperti ad ogni influenza dal pop al garage, filtrati dalla ‘science fiction’.”Now it’s the band’s turn to travel. Join us in launching this local band into a new phase of their career: Let’s “Send the Trike Shop to Liverpool!” The Trike Shop will be playing in the north of England this May including two sets in the Liverpool edition of the International Pop Overthrow Festival that will take place at the Cavern Club made famous by the Beatles. Expect them to inject a few ‘Fab’ tunes into this special Rogue Festival appearance.

WINNER - OUTSTANDING SOLO SHOW - 2005 New York International Fringe Festival. The true story of a surreal journey into the depths of a bizarre religious cult. Barry Smith, then a disillusioned dishwasher in Aspen, believes his sophistication, wisdom and hallucinogenic drug use have helped him to overcome his Southern fundamentalist upbringing … until he discovers Jesus has returned and is living in Montana! Incorporating home movies, photos and graphics, this tale examines the humorous side of everyday cult life.
“Five Stars! A devastatingly significant work.”
- Montreal Gazette.
“This show is both funny and gently thought-provoking.”
- New York Times
