Carlota
March 5 - 14
Location TBD

Carlota is a new play with music that weaves together the extraordinary life and legacy of Carlota Ruíz de González, a fictional character rooted in the rich tapestry of Cuban and New Orleans history. Under the musical direction of Dr. Denise Frazier and award-winning powerhouse musician Yusa, Carlota transports audiences on a journey through time, where 19th and 20th century stories are interwoven with vibrant AfroCuban and Creole rhythms.

Goat in the Schools (GITS) is GRP's one-of-a-kind youth theatre initiative—the only touring production in New Orleans that brings student voices to life through professional performance. Each year, GRP handpicks four exceptional plays written by middle school students in the Play/Write program, then transforms them into full-scale productions with professional actors and designers. GITS reaches over 2,000 students across local schools, proving that young voices deserve the spotlight.  GITS will hit the road from January - May 2026.

Goat in the Schools’ free public performances will be announced in the winter of 2026.

The 17th annual Play/Write program delivers year-long playwriting classes to 10 schools across the Greater New Orleans area. The program culminates in two electrifying Showcases where student-penned plays come alive through the artistry of adult performers.
