Drama lovers will have the rare opportunity on April 9 to see Huntington Theatre Company’s "Mala," a poignant one-woman play that delivers a moving portrait of the ways taking care of family tests, deepens and changes our bonds to the ones we love. Written and performed by local playwright and performer Melinda Lopez, "Mala" tells her story of caring for her increasingly frail and ever-fierce mother. Consistently sold out during its Boston run, "Mala" was taped by WGBH in 2018. It will make its broadcast debut on WGBH 2 and YouTube TV on Thursday, April 9 at 10pm. The play will also be available to stream following the broadcast in the WGBH TV & Streaming section.
