2025 NHP Alum Monet Hurst-Mendoza’s Torera will receive its world premiere production in a four theatre co-pro between WP Theater, The Sol Project, Long Wharf Theatre, and Latinx Playwrights Circle

Elena Maria Ramirez was born to be a torera, but it’s a rare feat for a woman in Mexico’s bullfighting scene. In order to enter the ring, she must defy society, her family, and legendary torero Don Rafael Cárdenas. Torera is a dynamic, epic family drama that swirls with the action, stakes, and intrigue of the bullfighting ring.
