An enterprising and extremely talented young man named Desi Gallegos (18-years-young) caught my attention last eve at The Marsh in San Francisco, starring in a solo performance of his search for the identity of God through interviews of various characters whom he portrays in this moving and funny piece God Fights The Plague. He is quite captivating and impressive, beginning his artistic run at age 14 with the award-winning Prop 8 Love Stories which he co-wrote and assistant-directed. Desi reflects an old-soul whose characters definitely live through him as he touches the audience with his adaptation of them.
If you’re anywhere in the Bay Area, I highly recommend seeing this performance during the run through Aug. 10th on Saturdays at 8:30p and Sundays at 7p.
