Labelle Her Mus presents:

Time: 7:00 pm til 8:00 pm

Location: Labelle City Hall, Labelle

Description: It is 1891 and José Martí (as portrayed by Chaz Mena) is preparing for his first trip to Tampa and Ybor City. Time is running out for the Cuban independence movement and Martí must inspire and galvanize his people to join the revolution against Spain in order to achieve a just society in Cuba. As he readies himself for the journey, Martí reflects upon his childhood, his studies, his writings, and his loves. “Charla,” which in Spanish means “a chat,” allows us to appreciate the challenges Martí faced in jump-starting the Cuban Revolution.

Chaz Mena is an accomplished actor with an impressive resume of dramatic accomplishments off Broadway, in regional theaters, and in film and television. Chaz has just been selected to host The Quincentennial Minute, celebrating Florida's 500-year anniversary; a timeline with 25, one-minute episodes in Florida history will be delivered by Chaz in both English and Spanish, then aired on all PBS stations in the state. He has also recently taped his one-person play Yo Solo…Bernardo de Galvez on the Stage of the American Revolution at WSRE in Pensacola, a PBS affiliate station. PBS will distribute this performance nationally in 2012-1
