Prize Winning novel 'The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao'
"Campo meets Díaz
Novelist and short-story writer Junot Díaz is the latest author to be turned into a playwright through the innovative open-process format practiced by Campo Santo. Material from Díaz's "The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao," winner of the 2008 Pulitzer and many other prizes for fiction, has been adapted for the next Intersection for the Arts-Campo Santo project and will open May 18 (previews begin May 14) as a play called "Fukú Americanus.""

INTERSECTION FOR THE ARTS and Resident Theatre Company CAMPO SANTO is proud to present the highly anticipated world premiere of Fukú Americanus inspired by Junot Díaz's Pulitzer Prize Winning novel 'The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao'.
Developed and directed by Campo Santo's Sean San José, and co-directed by The Living Word Project's Marc Bamuthi Joséph Fukú Americanus brings together an array of talented performers including Carlos Aguirre, Maria Candelaria, Vanessa Cota, Anna Maria Luera, Brian Rivera and Savannah Shange in a simultaneously epic and intimate tale about family histories, ancient curses, migration and ill-starred love.
Combining historical Dominican mythologies and mysticism with current cultural references, the tale forms a dense narrative reflecting the current melting pot of the United States. This stage creation inspired by Junot Díaz's unique fiction comes alive with endearing characters, an unforgettable story and authentic language - living proof that languages, like cultures, are fluid and alive, and evolves with history and each new generation.
