Teatro Círculo presents EL ESPACIO ENTREMEDIAS (The Space in Between) by Fernando Travesí.

Directed by Leyma López and performed by María Fontanals and Fernando Gazzaniga, this contemporary play presents the story of a couple who decide to raise their child, Alex, without assigning them a gender, causing their family, friends, the child’s school, and the government to challenge their decision.

Teatro Círculo’s production of El espacio entremedias comes just as President Trump has promised that under his administration, “the official policy of the United States government will be that there are only two genders, male and female.”
