Robin Fly | One-Woman Play by Alexia Alexander

Actress and playwright Alexia Alexander's award-winning one-woman play "Robin Fly" will land in Washington, D.C., this coming March 8 at 6:00 PM at the Mexican Cultural Institute DC. The popular play, winner of the prestigious 2023 Monologando Ando Festival for Best Monologue Play in NYC, brings a unique and powerful story to the stage.

Approaching her thirties, a passionate yet failing actress embarks on an impulsive road trip to reunite with her eternal—almost boyfriend—convinced that this person is the love of her life and the solution to finally boost her artistic career. Along the way, she'll undergo a crisis that leads her to question why she can't manage to be happy, book a leading role, find love, and stop striving to be the flawless, the perfect girl society might have wished for. In the midst of this emotional whirlwind, an unexpected message will lead her to make a life or death decision.

The performance is presented in Spanish with English subtitles for all audiences to enjoy.
