New WORLD Theater FALL 2006

Lydia on the Top Floor by Terry Jenoure & The Bejewelled Ensemble 
Wednesday & Thursday, September 20 & 21 at 8pm
Curtain Theater, UMass
Co-presented with the UMass Department of Theater

It is the early 1960’s. Lydia, a wife, a mother, a second generation 
Puerto Rican lives with her daughter on the fourteenth floor of a 
tenement building in the Bronx. What is the source of joy that keeps 
her hopeful, graceful, spirited? Maybe it is found in the blood memory 
of this native of Loiza, a descendent of enslaved Africans from the 
northeast coast of Boricua. In her kitchen, in her hips and feet, in 
her prayers, she teaches her daughter to move through the gray and 
concrete -to forgive and to conquer - to stay high and lifted up. 

This performance of music, movement, projected images, and narration is 
a tribute to her passion. 

The Bejwelled Ensemble features: Terry Jenoure - violin, vocals; Kim 
Clarke - bass; I-Shea - percussion; Maria Mitchell - dance; Olivia 
Ilano-Davis - dance.
