Not in the Genes – A Telenovela

Tia Theatre Company

When your biggest secret involves a moustache, a ukulele, and a DNA test... It’s a telenovela.

A woman has been hiding a secret for over 18 years. Everything seems okay until the past comes back to haunt her. Will she know how to deal with it?
Melissa and Eduardo met young. But people aren´t always what they appear to be. Despite Eduardo´s attention, care, and ukulele, Melissa falls in love with another man — his brother. An unpredictable pregnancy leads Melissa to a DNA clinic. But is that all? Is that where the secrets end? What will Melissa do to get her way? And will she manage to hide this secret for much longer?
After all, this is not any show, it’s a Telenovela. Who knows what will happen next?

Dare yourself to enter the room and experience the drama. But be careful, you may get involved....
