AMIGAS AT FIRST SEEMS LIKE A closet drama--an epistolary piece meant to be read rather than staged. As you watch it, however, the two-hander seizes you with its poetry, its lament for a lost home-land and its cry for social justice. Written by the Nevada Shakespeare Company's L. Martina Young and Jeanmarie Simpson, Amigas is adapted from an exchange of letters by Marjorie Agosin and Emma Sepulveda, professors of Spanish at Wellesley College and University of Nevada, Reno, respectively.
