SONNETS FOR AN OLD CENTURY examines what it means to be alive at this
particular time and place and what traces each of us will leave behind.
In a series of exquisitely written monologues, using dance and live
music, SONNETS captures the subtle, often overlooked treasures of
everyday life.

SONNETS FOR AN OLD CENTURY is the latest work by award-winning Puerto
Rican Playwright Jose Rivera.  Rivera's plays have been seen nationally,
internationally and translated into seven languages; they have been
performed at the Joseph Papp Public Theatre, Playwrights Horizons, South
Coast Rep, the Goodman Theatre, the Mark Taper Forum, Actors Theatre of
Louisville's Humana Festival and Hartford Stage Company, and include the
Obie Award-winning MARISOL and REFERENCES TO SALVADOR DALI MAKE ME HOT.
Rivera has been a writer-in-residence at the Royal Court Theatre,
London. Television credits include co-creating and producing the
critically-acclaimed NBC series "Eerie, Indiana,” as well as "The Eddie
Matos Story" for HBO; episodes of "Goosebumps," "The Great Brain," and
"Night Visions" for the Henson Company; "The Brothers Garcia" for
Nickelodeon; and "A.K.A. Pablo" for ABC. Films include "The Jungle Book:
Mowgli's Story," "Mr. Shadow," and "Family Matters," all for Disney, as
well as the 3-D IMAX film "Riding the Comet" for Sony.

Director KJ Sanchez recently starred as Thyona in Charles L. Mee's BIG
LOVE at the Brooklyn Academy of Music. This past year KJ created,
choreographed and directed TOO MUCH WATER, a dance theatre piece about
Ophelia, for the graduate theatre training program at the University of
Washington in Seattle. KJ was a member of Anne Bogart's SITI Company for
many years where she co-created plays such as GOING GOING GONE, SMALL

throughout the US and internationally.
