Bilingual play opens doors to
talk about healthy relationships
By TAMMY MALGESINI
East Oregonian
Amidst the backdrop of urban
Latin hip hop music, rhyme and
choreography, a bilingual play
presented by Teatro Milagro reveals
the shocking truth of how quickly
and easily teens are seduced into the
world of sex traf¿cking.
“Broken Promises” features four
teens living on the edge. Desperate
for money, they gamble their lives on
Internet porn and prostitution. The
play is based on true stories about
teenagers lured into prostitution.
Written by Olga Sanchez and
directed by Francisco Garcia,
“Broken Promises” will be
presented Wednesday, April 13 at 7
p.m. in the auditorium at Pendleton
High School, 1800 N.W. Carden
Ave. Although there is no nudity
or graphic scenes onstage, the
performance is recommended for
teenagers and up due to the mature
content. There is no admission
charge.
In addition, a “Healthy Relation-
ships,” workshop is set for Thursday
from 6-8 p.m. at Pendleton Center
for the Arts, 214 N. Main St.
Admission is also free. Participants
will learn about the ¿ve circles of

sexuality, relationships and commu-
nication.
While in the area, the cast
members will lead a “Healthy Rela-
tionships” residency — teaching
in health, drama, language arts and
English language development
classes at PHS and Nixyaawii
Community School.
Teatro Milagro’s “Healthy
Relationships” workshop uses
popular education methodology
to facilitate interactive discussions
regarding health and relationships.
Having received instruction through
the Multonomah County Health
Department, the facilitators seek to
provide a safe environment for an
open dialogue with teenagers.
The program, which opened in
January in Portland, is on a national
tour that runs through November.
Reviews have been favorable,
saying the production is tasteful,
accurate and powerful.
Dañel Malan and Jose Eduardo
Gonzalez, co-founders of the Port-
land-based Teatro Milagro, seek to
provide culturally appropriate arts
education and enrichment programs
that build cultural appreciation and
help bridge communities.
In 1995, Milagro produced “En
Este Valle de Lágrimas,” a Spanish
language AIDS education play for
the Washington County Health
Department. Since then, Milagro —
in partnership with various health
and social service agencies — has
produced more than dozen public
health plays related to breast cancer,
smoking and LGBTQQIA (Lesbian,
Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer,
Questioning, Intersex, and Ally)
health and wellness.

the local program, call Shannon
O’Rourke at 541-966-3830. For
