The libretto for a 2-act Broadway-style musical about a revolution that plays out on a fictional Latin American coffee plantation. And Diego, the revolutionary leader, is in love with the Dictator's daughter... Love, politics, violence, and consequences. Inspired by my time and travels in Nicaragua, in the lingering aftermath of the Sandinista revolution. Unlike some of my other works of theatre, this one was never staged or published - the large cast, ambitious staging, and musical accompaniment all proved beyond my means at the time. I'll be releasing it here on Wattpad, one song at a time. Follow me to be notified of new updates every Friday.

When Latin singer Juan Peláez hires hyperrealism artist Lin Solavida to paint a mural in his home, he doesn't know what he's in for. Word around town is that Lin is a forty-something guy with a Quasimodo-like hunchback. But no one has ever actually seen the man. Their contract comes with specific instructions: Juan isn't allowed to enter the room while the artist is working in his house for the next two months. Straightforward. Doable. Until his accidental run-in with the mysterious artist. Here's the problem. A: SHE is gorgeous, witty, and crazy talented. And B: She has walls so high no one can climb them. Finding ways to entice Lina into wanting to spend time with him shouldn't be too hard for a charming, creative guy like him, right? Wrong. Every attempt backfires. He either upsets her, runs her over, or, you know, epically embarrasses himself in front of her. But every miserable failure also makes her laugh and teaches him something new about Lina. ----------------------------- Tropes: forced proximity, lone (she-)wolf, meet cute This is a feel-good rom-com that came to me after watching Disney's Encanto. 😅 Just that "We Don't Talk About Bruno" turned into "We Don't Talk About Lina."
