Watts Village Theater Company (WVTC)

Inspiring its community with an appreciation of all cultures through new works about contemporary social issues.

In April and May 2011, Cornerstone Theater Company in association with Watts Village Theater Company presented The Unrequited (Between Two Worlds) Written by Lynn Manning Directed by Shishir Kurup The Unrequited (Between Two Worlds) follows the tale of Isela. Betrothed  to Fernando, a manshe doesn’t love, she is devoted to Cris, a man who  stole her heart and died trying to win herhand. When Cris’ soul  possesses Isela on the eve of her wedding, a Pandora’s box full of secrets, lies, betrayal, and hoodoo is opened, and nothing will ever be  the same.  Set in Watts,CA during Depression-era 1930s, this world  premiere play was based on The Dybbuk, the classic 1914 play by S. Ansky.  Community partners on this project: Lighthouse Community Outreach  Church, Watts SeniorCenter and Rose Garden, Youth Opportunities Watts  High School and the Mafundi Auditorium.

WVTC Supports Greater Website Accessibility for the Visually and Hearing Impaired:

For the visually impaired, we recommended using this website with the browser Mozilla Firefox, which features a variety of add-ons with the ability to read text on the web page, like Speak It, SpokenText, Text to Voice/Speech.

For all other browsers, we recommend using screen reading software such as
BrowseAloud (which reads out text on websites), FeedSpeaker (which reads out
RSS feeds), ATTS, NaturalReader, Internet Explorer Reader, and Text-to-Speech Master.

This activity was sponsored by California Arts Council and National Arts and Disability Center at the University of California Los Angeles.
