DOORS 7PM / SHOW 8PM
This triumphant solo comedy chronicles three generations of Latinas as they experience their first kiss.
What would you do if, after years of keeping your own journal, you discovered the journals of your mother and grandmother as teenage girls? You’d compare everyone’s first kiss of course! In this hysterical and painstakingly honest comedy, we get to join three young women as they navigate the choppy waters of passion, desire, and teenage dorkiness from 1930s Mexico to modern day San Diego. Cindy Rojas brings these girls - and the hilarious characters that fill their worlds - to life in vivid color as we see a first kiss evolve through time and across cultural and sexual borders. Based on the first-hand accounts found in journals and oral recordings, it just goes to show that nothing is funnier than the honest truth.
Winner of Best of Hollywood Fringe Festival!
“Sharp, clever and charming, Rojas is a confident and charismatic talent who lets nothing, including the fourth wall, stand between her and a good story.”
- Robert Avila, SF Bay Guardian
“Cynthia Rojas’s one-woman show, Evolution of a Kiss, is sizzling!...by the show’s end, the audience wants more…as the show’s rip-roaring humor and crafty storytelling is brilliantly propelled by the versatile performance of its leading lady.”
– Danny Rangel, LA Theatre Review

“Rojas’s expressions are priceless. Her comedy is most organic and never forced…There is a genuineness about Rojas – an openness and goodness – that shines through in her performance.”– Tony Frankel, Stage and Cinema
“Cynthia captured my heart and held it through the entire show. And her comedic timing … let’s just say that I thought I was watching a Mexican Kristen Wiig performing.”
