Saturday, March 26, 2016, The Institute of Musical Arts is proud to present “From the Mexican Border to East Los Angeles", a solo performance by award-winning Storyteller, Performance Artist, Writer and Teacher, Olga Loya.
 
Olga Loya performs, using a mix of Spanish and English, to share traditional tales from Latin America, as well as stories from her own varied and colorful life growing up in East Los Angeles. Known nationally and described as an "alchemist" who can conjure up images and fill them with life, her shows are bursting with color and passion. Olga uses her voice, body, and sometimes music and dance, to draw her audience into the imaginative and surprising worlds of the tales she tells.
 
In “From the Mexican Border to East Los Angeles" we will join her on a trip through her family album as she entertains us with personal and family stories about love, escapes, Pancho Villa, celebrations, broken knuckles, mustaches and more.
 
You can buy tickets to the show online: https://Mexico2EastLA.eventbrite.com , or by visiting our website: http://www.imalosangeles.com , You may also pay by cash, check or credit card at the IMA office, while supplies last.
