Penny Stamps Speaker Series
Open to the public
Free of charge
Alina Troyano (a.k.a. Carmelita Tropicana) straddles the world of performance art and theatre using irreverent humor and fantasy to rewrite history from the viewpoints of woman, man, child and assorted animals and insects. As a bicultural artist, she uses both spoken language and a visual language that integrates live performance with muti-media, and costumes of fruit, faux fur, camouflage, saran wrap to provide social commentary.
With support from Latina/o Studies Program, Program in American Culture, Department of Theatre & Drama, and the Office of the Provost U‑M Dearborn.
