In February, Audible members will be able to listen to Mala, Melinda Lopez's acclaimed solo performance, for free during the entire month as part of the company’s Originals Member Benefit. In celebration of the release, Audible offers Playbill readers the chance to listen to an excerpt from the show in the clip below.
Mala, which was seen at ArtsEmerson in Boston in fall 2016 (as well as at the Guthrie and Huntington Theatre Company), is an autobiographical exploration of how we live, cope, and survive. In the monologue play, Lopez weaves tales of doctors and urgent 911 calls, a mother’s growing frailty, and a daughter’s quest for grace.
