Arturo Luíz Soria: The White Whale Journal

2023 Obie Award-winning actor and writer Arturo Luíz Soria returns to the NYC stage in a new solo work, The White Whale Journal. This intriguing tale follows a writer, after the tragic death of his brother, who inherits a strange archive. What emerges is not an answer, but a widening: a brother restored not as a final act, but as a vast, unfinished human story still breaching the surface.

Arturo Luíz Soria is an award-winning actor and writer based in NYC. His solo show Ni Mi Madre premiered at Rattlestick Theater, winning the Obie Award for Best Performance. It went on to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, garnering an Offie Award in London. He is a two-time NYSCA grant recipient, a MacDowell Fellow, and was part of the inaugural TV writing mentorship program at Hillman Grad Productions. Theatre credits: Broadway’s The Inheritance; Wet Brain (World Premiere), Hit the Wall (World Premiere) TV/Film: CIA, Found, Insatiable, The Blacklist, East New York, and the upcoming features--Mermaid and Pimp Shit. Arturo holds an MFA from Yale School of Drama and a BFA from The Theater School at DePaul University. He is the founder of VagaMundo Productions. 

This event is part of the 24th Season of the Downtown Urban Arts Festival/DUAF.
