The Malaga was a 183-ton brig built in Brunswick, Maine in 1832 in a shipyard owned by Joseph Badger. It didn’t take long for the ship to become part of the illegal transatlantic trade of African captives to the Americas.
Developed while an artist in residence in Portland, Maine, Antonio Rocha tells the story of the ship, using his entire body and voice, singing, narrating, and miming his way through this poetic historic tale. The story vividly explores the reality and impact of the slave industry, which connects The Malaga Ship to Rio de Janeiro, where Rocha was raised.
