"In the Stageworks' production of In the Time of the Butterflies, Clare Lopez plays the one character who transcends time to tell the stories of the incredible mariposas, the butterflies. Here's a closer look at this actress.
What drew you to this play?
When I came upon Stageworks Theatre's website I was immediately excited about their season which revolved around the theme of "The Year of the Woman". Feeling equally passionate about performing in plays that so relevantly speaks to the empowerment, advocation, and telling of women's stories--I was so grateful to be considered. Apart from that-- it was so refreshing to audition for a role that would allow me to play someone who shared my ethnic makeup, in a cast made up of entirely Latino performers. Having grown up hearing about this story in school, I feel deeply privileged to be a part among these talented story tellers getting to perform this story in its original language."
