Presented by Breaking Wave Theatre Company, rooted on the island of Guam.

What does a delicious can of SPAM have to do with colonialism and Asian identity? CHamoru/Filipina artist Sierra Sevilla attempts to answer this in her hilarious one-woman show.

For the Love of Spam is a one-woman comedic stand-up, puppetry, participatory, and multisensory show dedicated to two things: canned meat and colonialism. We’ll find out how this (delicious) canned meat symbolizes modern-day colonialism, and threatens the very livelihood of a whole civilization in these ‘West vs East’ political games. Can this formerly catholic, angry, and god-fearing woman help educate (and feed) the masses, all while ‘liberating’ her island?

This production will also be interpreted in American Sign Language.

NOTE: THERE IS LIMITED SEATING IN THE LAB. If the venue fills up, guests are welcome to join us for an encore presentation of this play on Saturday.
