Amelia Bethel & Karen Loewy Movilla, Creators and Performers of theatre show "Tia Talk"

In this episode, co-hosts Linda Lane Gonzalez and Kathryn Garcia Castro are entertained by Amelia Bethel & Karen Loewy Movilla as they perform during the interview some of the characters they embody in “Tia Talk,’ their theatrical collaboration where they try to prove their Latinidad to themselves and the audience by embodying every stereotype they have been fed by the media, their peers, and even their families.

The uniqueness of the show also brings in different guests for each performance to hear another point of view and also allow the audience to participate in the show.

Special thanks to Liz Lombardi, Publicist at Matt Ross Public Relations for her help in arranging this interview.  We also want to thank the band PGM for the use of its song, “April” as The Revolucion theme.

Amelia Bethel is a theater artist whose work confronts the performance of identity and the materiality of the body, with a focus on sexuality and a mixed-race experience. She can be heard as Marisol on the award-winning podcast Unwell: A Midwestern Gothic Mystery from HartLife Studios. Amelia is a former associate artist in residence with poet Tracie Morris and playwright Sibyl Kempson at the Atlantic Center for the Arts, and received her MFA in Theatre from Sarah Lawrence College.

Karen Loewy Movilla is a Colombian artist based in New York City. She’s interested in the question of: How do we take up space, when it is not freely given? Combining digital media, embodiment, spoken word, and puppetry she confronts inherent biases, and oppressive systems. She’s this year resident at Object Movement Puppetry Residency 23’, a 2021 MFA graduate of Sarah Lawrence College and a 2026 Scenic Design Candidate at Yale University.
