Aurora’s Motive

Chicago’s premiere Latino theater company reprises their world premiere production of Aurora’s Motive by Chicago playwright Jamie Pachino. This thrilling historical play is based on the true story of a radical young woman who bucks convention by raising and educating her daughter to speak out as a leader of the revolution. A child prodigy, with a nationally recognized news column, she travels the country with her mother lecturing on sexual reform, birth control, women’s rights and the creation of the Spanish Republic. As she blossoms into a young woman and begins to pull away from her mother…tragedy strikes.
