Pueblo Revolt
by Ground Floor Theatre
May. 07 - May. 23
Thursdays-Sundays
Pueblo Revolt is a wrenching, hilarious, and deeply human two-person play set against the 1680 Pueblo Uprising in New Mexico. Through the lives of two Indigenous brothers—one young, queer, and dreaming; the other eager, duty-bound, and torn—the story confronts colonialism, identity, family, and the enduring cost of resisting oppression. It is history made urgent, intimate, and alive.
Age Recommendation: Thirteen and up.
Written by Dillon Christopher Chitto, an Indigenous playwright of Mississippi Choctaw, Isleta, and Laguna Pueblo descent, Pueblo Revolt is a dark comedy that tells the story of two brothers in Pueblo Isleta. In this regional premiere, the two discuss their place in history, in society and in their assigned social status, revolution, and what they are willing to do to live freely on the cusp of the Pueblo Revolt in New Mexico.
“This play celebrates the strength of Indigenous and Native American people and our ability to endure, to resist, and to keep finding moments of life and laughter along the way,” said director Gonzales, “As an Indigenous artist, directing this play means a great deal to me. It’s an honor to help tell a story that reflects not only our struggles, but also our resilience and spirit.”
Pueblo Revolt features AJ Reyes as Feem Whim and Benjamin G. Bazán as Ba’homa.
With direction by Carl Gonzales, the production team includes assistant direction by Astrid Rangel, scenic design by Maggie Armendariz, lighting design by Luis Sandoval, costume design by Cece Sanchez, property design and set dressing by Kiryat Castillo, sound design by Johann Solo, intimacy direction by Andy Grapko, technical direction by Frederick Demps, graphic design by Erica Moreno with Mia Gomez-Reyes as production stage manager and Megan Ortiz as stage manager.
