Torera is a powerful play about a young latina woman who dares to step into the bullfighting arena
in Yucatán, Mexico, confronting tradition, identity, and legacy. Written by Monet Hurst-Mendoza
and directed by Jude Lucas, Torera intimately portrays Elena María Ramírez’s path to becoming
her truest self, an empowering and poignant tale steeped in cultural tradition, class struggle, and the
defiance of a patriarchal society.
